Hey Gwizah, Just my two cents! I run an older 48 inch Mimaki CG II series plotter - I bumped into it carrying some substrates one time and bent the rollers away from the rail - I didn't see if anyone mentioned that (apologies if its in here somewhere) and I had to 'bend' it back into shape so...

Hey Mike, Yeah contour cutting reflective is fun...oyvey...lol Best thing that works for me takes a couple minutes longer, but works every time - premask or transfer tape. I've attached a pic of what I mean. It is the reflective part of the material that bounces back the beam to the plotter and...

Saw this thread and thought I would throw my 2 cents in - I've been using the exact same machine for a decade now and have had tons of banding issues over the years - the biggest fix for me for VERTICAL banding was heat - play with the top two plattens. I turned mine down from 30 something to...

Hello font lovers! Having a real hard time with this one - and it may be a one off from back in the day, so even something close would be greatly appreciated. This is the only known image of this particular Isuzu writing style that we can find. My brother in law is restoring a 1966 Isuzu Elf...

Hey guys, I cannot find a similar thread here (or I'm calling it a wrong name when searching) But hopefully will get some feedback here or pointed in the right direction. I have an older Mimaki JV33 130 that I am having clarity in print issues with. Installed a new Print head recently and...

Hey guys - been surfing through the forums a bit here and cannot find a similar thread - apologies if this one has been covered before somewhere. I use a JV-33 54" Mimaki solvent ink printer, with a matching 54" plotter I have been looking for a single print, non lam material for decals and...

If you can print it and leave a cut line (or supply the appropriate format to someone) find someone with a laser. Not sure what you are cutting, but for either a smaller run, or 2ft x 2ft max, you could get away with it? just a thought

Hey, thanks for the response - sorry for delay For straight vinyl, you are correct, I should have been more clear. I have used the Avery's 900 supercast for similar stuff with good results, but I need to make a sticker - asst colors and shape cut. So I'm looking for a 'printable' vinyl for...

Thanks for that, but sadly (at least so far) it is going right on the block. Will hit temps around 300f or so. I have seen on Caterpillar and Komatsu heavy equip - and actually one of the blocks I am being asked to supply a quote for - looks aftermarket as it doesn't have the actual brand name...

Hey out there, Looking for a place to buy heat resistant vinyl - going on Semi engine blocks (fresh rebuilds - clean paint) Must be out there somewhere, as you can buy "Heat resistant" decals - and some of the old motors have them? I am in Canada, so Canadian preferred for shipping reasons...

possible solution? Follow the link - buddy of mine has one for small jobs and loves it - I have never used, but results look good Although it may be smaller than you are looking for? http://www.busybeetools.com/products/INTELLICARVE-15IN.-CNC-MACHINE-OLIVER-CSA.html

The heat Gun Method Hey guys, I have done tons of these and have never had any issues with re-using the acrylic or makrolon or what ever. Unless I am missing something here, it sounds like you just want to take a wide format print off the substrate? Either that or cut vinyl - yes? If this is...
