  1. Good Trade? I think so!

    Well, since purchasing my HP L25500, the poor old and well used Roland SP540V has been quite lonely. I don't print with it anymore... it is just a "glorified cutter". But I need a better cutter, so I struck a deal with my supplier on Friday at the Alberta Sign Association show to do a...

  3. Shop Pics!

    I've spent the last month or so (when time allowed) re-arranging the work-flow in my shop now that I've sold my offset press and it along with everything offset related is gone! I moved my office out to the production area to be close to everything... I like it much better. My business partner...

  5. Very cool app!

    A family member pointed me to the app called "PhotoFunia". Very cool app (at least I think so). Here's a couple of examples of what you can do with it... These are my "boys"! :smile:
  6. Golfing can be painful!

    So I decide to take Monday off and play some golf because it was such a beautiful day and all! Well, I'm on the driving range awaiting my tee time, and I take a (very nice) swing with my 6 iron when suddenly I feel a "pop" in my abdomen area and it feels like I've just been stabbed. Turns out I...

    I just had to show off the new addition to my shop. I have a brother in Ontario who does Iron Art (www.ironartcanada.com)... can I put his website here? :rolleyes: Anyhow... I commissioned him to build me a good sturdy 4 x 8 work table... and like always, he didn't disappoint! This table is...
  9. Patrick... the miracle.

    Has anyone else been following the story of Patrick, the Pit Bull in Newark? How a human being with a heartbeat could be so cruel to any living creature is beyond comprehension. I hope there is prison time involved... BE WARNED... IT IS VERY DISTURBING TO LOOK AT...

  13. Photo Collages anyone?

    Do you ever get customers asking you to make a photo collage poster? You know... the poster with a zillion photos on it? There is a fantastic new app for the Mac in the App store on your Mac (OSX 10.6.6 or higher) called "Posterino". For 30 bucks, it can save you tons of time laying out...
  14. Excel Nightmare...

    I have a Microsoft Excel file supplied by a customer that is 22 columns wide by 724 columns long. They want me to print a 60 x 70 poster from this file.

  16. Thank You Bigfish!

    A huge thank you to Bigfish for introducing me to the Latex Gloss paper he sells. I received my roll (42" x 300') 2 days ago and have run a bunch of posters on my new HP L25500 Latex printer and LOVE the quality of print and feel of this paper. The solids are outstanding and the colors are...
  17. Gallery Wrap Canvas Print

    Just thought I'd share a video I made for my Franchise Forum. It shows the process of Gallery wrapping a canvas print. It's a pretty cool product. Video is 9 minutes or so, but well worth the watch! Wondering if anyone else has used these? They go by different names depending on where you look...

    Just thought I'd post this as a matter of record. On the news today, they said that this morning we were the second coldest place on earth today! When I left for work, the air temperature was -32C, and the windchill was -44C :omg::omg: My poor puppies (with their booties on) lasted about 20...
  19. Bleed for Edge printing

    I'm putting this in the Adobe section because the attached logo was created in Illustrator, but my question is about getting it ready to print on the Edge. The issue I'm having is how to get a proper bleed for Edge printing. The letter "M" is not actually a font... it was created by the merging...
  20. Impossible to cut?

    I have a customer who is hell bent on getting this cut for the side windows of his truck. I've tried on the enVision with 220 with no luck thus far. Size is approximately 8" wide by 6" high. Now... is the detail just too intricate to cut realistically, or do I need to really tweak something...
