  1. Fellers

    Reps Perhaps I think too much or my expectations are way too high... but is it wrong of me to expect that my vendor sales reps know more about their products than I do? I had a guy call me from (unnamed company) that sells equipment for them and he had no idea what the equipment landscape...
  2. Rolls Roller

    ROlls Have a vendor partner who has one and he does vinyl decals and vehicle graphics almost exclusively and he loves the thing. I take some stuff over to him for lamination and mounting and it is quick and easy with the RR. It will put material on some pretty thick media, so 60mm sounds right.
  3. Vendor Agreement

    Non Compete Just to follow up... I have come to many of the same conclusons that many of you have and I have also submitted to my business attorney to A) review B) offer negotiable stances on some points and C) come up with a responding document that prevents them from sharing my prices, my...
  4. Vendor Agreement

    Have a new customer that requires the signing of a Vendor Agreement which in essence is a sort of legal guarantee that I won"t go after their accounts and if i do there are repurcussions. I understand why they think they need this - but do I need this as well. Here's my point - if i sign this...
  5. Changebable dates on banners

    Banner Yeah - this is an overhead street banner, so Alumacore isn't an option. My other thought was to just sew in velcro strips and provide same vinyl banner material with new date and velcro on back. I am in NC and the are in FL, so using cut vinyl isn't an option. I already explained that...
  6. Edge or similar thermal output for backlit

    Art the art is simple white text outlined in Illustrator with vector white logo at top. Thought about cut vinyl and would probably work great if it was applied to front of acrylic, but since its face applied to the back it needs to be single surface or there will be adhesive voids and look...
  7. Changebable dates on banners

    Yeah... I just got a request for some 18' long banners that the customer wants to have the ability to change the date each year and their brilliant idea is to sew in a clear vinyl "pocket" and slide in the new dates with 2mm PVC each year. Banners only stay up for 10 days each year. Trying...
  8. Vinyl over printed banner

    Changeable date banner Yeah... I just got a request for some 18' long banners that the customer wants to have the ability to change the date each year and their brilliant idea is to sew in a clear vinyl "pocket" and slide in the new dates with 2mm PVC each year. Trying to come up with a...
  9. Edge or similar thermal output for backlit

    I am an inkjet guy and don't have any experience with thermal type printers and am wondering if you can use thermal output for a backlit application. Basically - is the output (black) opaque enough to block light like a duratrans will? I have a small face-mounted backlit that is black only...
  10. Trade Show displays?

    Trade show I have researched and bought from many companies in the hardware arena. Here is a non-comprehensive list off the top of my head: Testrite Expand Mark Bric WS Display Orbus Duo Brandstand Drytac Bowman If you have done a Google search for "retractable banner stand" - you will get...
  11. Eliminating Static

    Static Just remember - eliminating static from a piece of Scotch tape at a trade show is a little easier than eliminating static from an electrical device. Do a Google search for anti static environments and you will garner alot of companies that make real world products that probably work...
  12. Digital Printer for Posters?

    Posters Your choices are HP, Epson and Canon Figure out what you want to spend, how many colors you really need (some go up to 12 color) what your majority run width will be (24", 36", 44", 64", etc.) and how often you will be running it (some don't like to sit for too long between use)...
  13. Where can I find info on making my own profiles?

    Would be nice if there was a straightforward guide for Onyx, as well. The steps are easy enough, but there are some pretty critical decisions to be made along the way that if you don't know what they do - can really screw up the works and give bad results.
  14. Banner stand

    Photo And here is a photo of said stand... disregard the length of the attachment pole - the previous vendor made graphic to incorrect template and cut the attachment bar to fit. Thanks
  15. Banner stand

    Has anyone ever heard of a banner stand called "Scroll Space"? Its not a scrolling banner stand - thats just the name. I have done Google searches and looked at all the major producers/distributors of banner stands and no one has one even close to this thing. I am assuming its Chinese that...
  16. Vinyl on basketball goal pads

    Vinyl on vinyl Just did this for a logo rebrand of local college sports teams. original was screenprinted to vinyl padding. We used 3M vinyl for textured surfaces - can't remember the number right now - sorry - someone will be able to spout it here. We used 3M solvent cleaner to remove parts of...
  17. Need a swift reply please...

    Need a supplier for bulk bundles of 1 x 2 x 48" wood stakes with "V" already cut for temporary directionals Thanks Sean
  18. I hate some customers

    Perhaps this is a great time for all involved to submit what their work order/job approval forms look like. I am always interested to see what types of things all the experts cover in documentation.
  19. So....has anybody ever...

    Saw a guy on a Hayabusa steadily running away from 2 state troopers a few weeks back. The troopers cars were actually bouncing as they tried to keep up which is just shy of losing control. If you go fast enough and haven't murdered anyone - eventually they will let you go. But either steal one...
