I've never had that problem. It will always login fine, but it kicks me out of the other location. It is rather annoying. A few times I have lost a little bit that was entered in and not saved yet.
I suppose the purpose is to prevent sharing 1 login with the whole shop. I wish there was...
Treated wood posts are a total crap shoot. I will not stake my reputation on them. We only use clean cut cedar posts for wood, or aluminum posts for long term use.
Are you sure that when you scroll up, something isn't highlighted that's missing? This happens to me all the time. Seems it should be more intuitive, like a pop up box. Shopvox requires a lot of screen real estate.
Before we switched to Shopvox from Signvox, they advertised a "read only"...
Interesting. You use Oracal 210 matte overlaminate as a frost vinyl? I have found that the 210 matte laminate as well as Mactac Frost vinyls do not hold up well long term outdoors. Must be something about the matte texture that absorbs more heat/sunlight.
My experience with dry erase lam is that it is very sensitive to heat. I had a job do that once when it was put in a nursing home (it was quite warm in there). I re-did the job with Avery Anti-Graffiti Lam and had no problems.
My experience with lighted sign wholesalers in general (Esco being one of them), is that you just cannot count on them for a firm date. When you outsource, it is totally out of your control, but you are hanging on the line for the due date. I am reluctant to take on jobs like this where there...
I would think with the gazillion different codes that no one is going to do this except for charging an exorbitant free. Is there an architect involved? They should be handling this. Otherwise with basic ADA knowledge you should be able to handle yourself. Signs marking all rooms, stairs...
I am a recent convert of Signvox to Shopvox. We were on Signvox for about 3 years. Shopvox is still pretty new software, so it is a little rough in some spots. Be prepared for the conversion. If this is a peak time of year for you, I would hold off. The first week or two will be pretty...
Our conversion from Signvox to Shopvox was completed a couple of weeks ago.
There was, as expected, a number of little issues in the changeover. Most were resolved pretty quickly by the support team.
Expect to spend a decent amount of time learning the new software. It is a lot to grasp, but...
I am trying to match some existing Edge-grip stand-offs. Here are the specs:
- 2.5" diameter
- 3" tall
- Clear anodized (brushed silver)
- Edge grip (not Thru Stand-offs)
These are crazy huge. I cannot find them at any of my usual sources (Gyford, MBS, Displays2Go, Sign Design Systems...
I would highly recommend using studs for mounting, not just adhesive. Here in the US you can rent one for about $150 or so. It is well worth the extra money.
Also, don't do just "shoulders" - cut it all out of 1 piece if you can.
The shadowing shouldn't be too noticeable from a normal viewing distance. If this is viewed up close you could use 3M 467 adhesive so it covers the entire letter with no seams. Or you could rout the push thru letters and backing out of a single piece of thick clear plex.
I'm pretty tech savvy, but I've never had very good luck with anti virus programs and removing viruses. I believe anti virus programs just add more headache. I use common sense and rarely have problems. I have set up our systems here so all critical stuff is on the server, so when a problem...
First, Diamond Grade is not Engineer Grade, it is Diamond Grade. Very expensive and not sure if you can even die cut it with a plotter.
It is primarily for traffic signs.
Oracal 5700 has a 7-year life. Striving for life expectancy beyond that is pretty futile. For this purpose, that should...
Looking for any feedback from those that have converted from Signvox to Shopvox. I am interested in switching, but don't want to be a guinea pig. I realize there is a learning curve to the new software, but am hoping that all the user date converts over without issues.
Mesh will be more durable, especially with the cold weather coming up. It is better to cut the banner short and use stretch cords so the banner can flex with wind loads.
For interior windows, we have used a clear PET film, made by Lintec, sold by Drytac. You need a UV printer, I believe. For exterior facing windows, I think you would have to use the 3M vinyl.
