  2. Wanted: Scrap diamond grade reflective pieces

    We usually have a ton in our shop but we have been donating it to some schools around town for art projects, as well as a big mural thing for construction safety we have been working on forever.
  3. How are these made?

    We have brought some of these through our shop before and they are screen printed. The overlay films are nice to work with but aren't very economical in terms of labour or price when you compare it to screen printing.
  4. Clear Media...

    Yeah, I say cost effective as it is only going to used to put our company name on equipment, which usually gets ran over within a year or 2 anyways.
  5. Clear Media...

    Does anyone have any suggestions for a clear printable media? We previously used IJ10 Religiously and since it has been discontinued we have been trying to find a cost effective alternative. The closest clear cost effective media I can find from 3M is IJ61. Does anyone have any experience with...
  6. Removing reflective from aluminum street signs

    Cover them, in my business specifically every one of our signs is reflective and we cover signs all the time. A general tip for anyone on here looking at covering signs is to not use 3M 3400 Engineer Grade to cover anything, it translucent bordering on being almost transparent so your layer...
  7. Need advise before i purchase a version of omega 2.5

    I know for our versions we have had, there is a USB dongle that needs to be attached at all times if you want to run the program.
  8. business licenses....

    That doesn't surprise me one bit, That is exactly what happens in some parts of the construction industry.
  9. Does anyone have a CNC Plasma cutter?

    Yeah, its between Shearing them or cutting them with a plasma. With the shearing a lot more hands have to touch the material though.
  10. Does anyone have a CNC Plasma cutter?

    On the water jet, I have heard consumables as well as maintenance are a real pain and quite expensive, as well as being quite slow compared to a plasma. How much volume do you cut with your CNC Router? We buy around 300-400 blanks a month so it would need to do quite a bit of volume and most of...
  11. What does everyone think of this? Sign Concept...

    The idea was to use the regulatory signage, the background on the sign itself is another regulatory sign up here. I didn't even think of using what is on our website. But that concept looks pretty cool. What about the website itself, What do you think of that?

    I will give them a try, thanks for the infomation.

  14. Does anyone have a CNC Plasma cutter?

    I was just wondering if anyone on here has one and can answer a couple of quick questions for me. Here is some background, we are looking at picking up equipment to do our blanks in house ranging from .060 all the way to .125 5052 H38 Aluminum. What is the minimum thickness you can cut or would...
  15. What does everyone think of this? Sign Concept...

    It is our 50th Anniversary coming up next year and for fun we did this up and were debating about it a bit. Keep in mind this is not meant to be "High Design" it is made to reflect what we do with our business itself, so the concept itself is based upon Regulated signage. So what does everyone...
  16. Reflective Vinyl Solutions

    If you were laying Vinyl on top instead of printing 3M 3200 Engineer Grade or 3M 3400 Engineer Grade Prismatic would be more cost effective than the IJ680. 3M Commercial Graphics has IJ5000 and IJ5100 that are printable if I am not mistaken. I am a bit biased with the 3M Reflectives that we use...
