I'm going to pose another question here: Are there any new servo motor cutters out there that will work from Flexi 8.1? I still have time to return the GS24.
I just did a fresh re-install of Flexi on my PC. Now to take the new GS24 back from mom and try it out here. Her PC is already 'flaky' and I don't want to risk a major crash and keep her from being able to do anything. Her production manager is wonky, it only shows the print/cut dialog box. I...
First off, this is for my mom who is in her 70's, so no suggestions of use the Roland CutStudio software or cut directly from CorelDraw. She isn't about to learn to use a new program, and I don't have the time/patience to teach her. She's been using Flexisign Pro for decades, first for someone...
Got this in the emails today. Surprised it's not the usual banners request. If anyone wants to tackle it, hit me up for the reply info, lol.

I'm Richard Larry I would like to know if you have Decals.Could you please let me know the price for each size of 8x8 Inches( 8" x 8" die cut decals...
Before I started getting big into printed graphics, I had some trouble with magnets bubbling, warping, pulling the corners in if covered with a piece of solid black or really dark vinyl. My solution was to cut the vinyl that was to be the background a bit oversize, then let it sit on a table out...
When the first thing a customer tells me is how several other sign companies didn't want to work with them, I usually know what to expect. I typically up the estimate knowing they will most likely be a pita. Patience is a virtue. If they like the final design, they like it. I have stopped giving...
I use Flexi, which has a distort tool that works really well for that. It keeps the letters straight up and down, but curves the top and bottom of them. This isn't an exact description of what it actually does, but I hope you get the idea. Putting the lettering in an arc would have them angled...
I guess I should have ben more specific on my needs, but highly value the input. Funny, without mentioning it, the biggest concerns I have are accuracy and long runs. I do quite a bit of small decals where accuracy is a must for easy weeding of small text and detailed images, and I also do quite...
When to say when. I have been using my DGI Omega OM-60 for nearly 19 years now. Just had its first breakdown, the ribbon cable going to the cutter carriage got snarfed by the circuit board on top of the carriage. Luckily, I had been given an identical dead plotter about 15 years ago. The ribbon...
They wanted something with a somewhat fancy frame but on the cheap, lol. I put in way too much labor making the frame, but it was enjoyable compared to just popping 2 sticks in the ground. One of my earlier layouts had the Model Home in just text, but they wanted more pop. Like I said before, 4...
The backside would show the 2x2s that are flush with the rear edge of the 4x4s and the 2x4s. There is one vertical 2x2 brace centered, then one horizontal one behind the top of the Key West section for the hooks to attach to. That section can be flipped over to say OPEN.
Yeah, no riders on the Model Home signs, and a max height of 5', with decorative frame allowed to extend up an additional 6".
For what we had to work with, I think we did ok.
It's hard to tell from the pic, but the section with the model name is actually removable. it is on hooks and can be flipped over to say OPEN. It was a necessary part of the sign, otherwise regulations says they can put a 12x18 Model Open stake sign next to the large sign, which looks lame. So...
Here is a prime example of "The customer knows best". This image has been cropped to remove the top third of the sign containing the logo and phone number (required on all their signage for 'branding') in an effort to protect the innocent. The font and colors are the same as in the logo, and the...
Thanks for the input on the Frame. The side caps were an afterthought of sorts. needed a way to access the lag bolts for when the sign gets disassembled and moved. As for colors not matching the logos, they are way closer than they appear. Funny how a cell phone pic in poor lighting can look so...
Yeah, I usually have white screws on hand, but unfortunately didn't for this one. I don't think the ACM needs the washers, but time will tell. Here's another small sign I did without screws. The sign is f'in ugly, but the frame looks good imho. (Other than that gap between the 2x2s)
