I have a Gerber edge II printer, envision vinyl cutter and omega 6.0 (with dongle) that I would like to sell. I also have around 24 foils cassettes. The vinyl cutter need service because I have a connection error code (I'm using my summa cutter). But the printer is still perfect. How much could...

I'm looking for storage system idea for rigid material like acylic, divond, coropast, etc. What do you have in your shop?

I already have a kala mistral laminator but the ''clean'' part of my shop is not on the same level of my ''fabrication'' part shop. So I'm looking for a cheap laminator to just mount film on rigid substrat. I would love to have an application table but the budget is not there. I was looking the...

I have few aluminum signs that need to me fix on a concrete ceiling. The sign is 10in high X 48in wide make of 12g aluminum. The cables/chain will be between 20in to 25in long and fixed on a concrete ceiling. I'm looking for the best practice and products to anchor this safely. Is there a...

I'm getting a laser soon and I'm looking for a shelf adhesive material (mat and gloss version) that can be printed with my HP latex and cut with my laser. I would, for example, install my vinyl on an acrylic sheet than contour cut the whole thing. I'm also looking for an optically clear version...

I'm doing my homework to buy our first flatbed cutting machine. Right now we are between the Colex SXC1732 and the Esko X24. We will mostly use it to cut rolled material like vinyl but will start to do dimensional sign in-house instead of sub it out. For the cutting we will mostly do 1/2 thick...

I have the HP 700. With almost all materials, if I don't use the take-up, the material will jam in the curing unit even if I advance the material outside of it at the start-up. The problem with this is I lost 5 linear feet each time I load a job. For smaller jobs, that is a big lost. Right now...

like the title says, I'm looking for an acrylic bending machine to make mainly displays. The only one I've found so far that is interesting is this one on sign-in-china.com I would like to have some recommendations if this one is garbage. I'm planing to use it at least once every week. Right...

If you could only buy a track saw or panel saw to cut everything related to the sign industry (in my case mostly acrylic), what would you choose? If you have a specific brand/model in mind, I would like to know. Thanks.

I got a Summa vinyl cutter. I have over 400 numbers to cut. I was wondering if there is a way I could cut the job, apply premask and put it back in the vinyl cutter to use the flexcut function. I know it would work on a flatbed cutter, but was wondering if it could work with roll-to-roll...

We currently outsource all our dimensional job to Gemini and a local guy. We are bidding on a job that would justify the purchase of a CNC machine. I've done my homework and know what I will buy. But now I need to figure out the paint part. I've considered to subcontract that part, but the...

I'm trying to create a grain gradient in illustrator that will be printed with white ink. So I need it to be a spot color. I can use the grain effect, but cannot use it as a spot color. So I will probably have to create a ''gradient'' vector, but can't figure out how to do it. Yes, I could just...

So with the trade show currently going, is there a promotion for the summa s2t vinyl cutters?

So we got our HP 700W for a bit over a month now. We choose the white ink option to do mainly job with white spot color. But now, the word came out that we have white ink and we got demand for 3 layers and 5 layers jobs. I'm trying to figure out my cost in time and ink to be able to know how...

I'm used to premask by hand. We just got a kala mistral 1650 laminator and I was under the impression I could premask cut vinyl with it. If I do small part, there is no problem. But anything longer than 60in, the vinyl wrinkle under the premask. I've called my rep and he told me I should use a...

So I'm looking to buy a saw to cut maintly dibond and other sign related rigid material. If I can cut acrylic and aluminum up to 80mil it would be great but not mandatory. I will also do plywood few times a year. I look between a panel saw or a track saw. What do you recommend and what...

Hi, I'm upgrading my vinyl cutter for the new S2 tangential cutter from summa. I currently have a D160R and I'm wondering how much I could get for it. I'm guessing around 1.5k$, but what do you think? Tanks.

I'm building my new work table. The size is 5X10. I was under the impression that I could find a plywood this size easily. Big mistake on my part. I wanted to use a 5/8 plywood. What do you suggest that is solid? The plan B would be 2 parts of material.

I have an opportunity to buy a used fotoba digitrim 64. The person have it for almost 10 years. What would be a fair price? I did not found what was the original price. Right now, they are asking 10k$ USD.

I'm looking for a stand alone humidifier for our production/office area. It's an open floor around 850 sqft with 8 ft ceiling. Right now, with our -30 celcius outdoor, our humidity is always around 25% (30% on a good day). I've contacted my local HVAC guy and he quoted me 3800$ including the...
