  2. Cardboard sign base

    Please see attached... I took these photos at a tradeshow thinking I liked the simple cardboard base and thought nothing more of it. Now I have a client that these will work perfect for, so... Has anyone seen these or know where I can buy them or can anyone make something like this? I...
  3. Real estate pricing

    Most realtors do not have their own posts, but some have their own frames - 2 different things. Asking for pricing here is pointless if the answer isn't coming from someone less than 100 miles away from you - and then why would they answer anyway? I am sure it costs (or is worth) way more to...
  4. Komatex (pvc) + 115 degrees (in shade) = warping??

    The molecular structure of PVC is fairly loose which allows it to be heat bent so easily in manufacturing and also enables it to warp in high heat conditions and since the structure is so loose - it will not retain its original form but will accept its new cooled structure. Just take a piece of...

  6. Stair Graphics?!?

    Be aware that there is - unbelievably - a utility patent issued for stair graphics.

  8. what do you wear?

    Down here in the Carolinas - most places we would call on kind of laugh at you or treat you with disdain if you wear a suit to call on them - and I am talking big corporations, not local businesses. So we wear nice slacks and a branded company polo. In rare instances we will add a sport coat to...

  13. what does FPO mean???

    For Position Only Prepress 101 Has to do with the old days of CT/Lw workflow - (Continuous Tone/Line Work) The early RIPs would make a low res preview that you would place in your layout program and then swap them out for the high res once RIPped for final print. It kept the file...
  14. Who is the Largest Sign Company in the US, non-Franchise?

    Largest shop So who would be the largest wide format shop doing strictly print for pay - not wholesale and not sign fabrication/electrical?
  15. Smooth Coroplast

    Its a little "denser" white - not as see-through as regular coro so the flutes aren't as visible. Prints nice on our flatbed. We get ours from Inteplast.
  16. Color Confused??

    Color I used to teach color profiling and color management way back in my days with DuPont Color Proofing. There is a really long answer to your question and a 5000 foot view answer. Simply put - RGB is a much wider color space than CMYK, so if you design in RGB you will have a larger pallette...
  17. retractable banner stand question

    Give us the manufacturer and the model. Most have a 6" - 8" leader at the bottom. Does it attach with velcro, tape or a clamping system at the bottom?
  18. Gatorfoam edge finishing tape

    DryTac makes a machine to put edge banding on Enviroboard and ReBoard products - that would work. Call them and see who has a machine in your area or go to their website to check it out. http://www.drytac.com/finishing-equipment/des-5.html
  19. This is insane! What next?

    You can't run down to your local Ace Hardware if your $1 crescent wrench breaks or floats away way up in the space station. How cool to just print out a new one... Of course, maybe we don't have a legitimate space program anymore... As far as the inner workings - my buddy does patent...
