  4. Need Help Cannot find this Seeburg.......................

    i would not expect a 40+ year old digitized manual to be in color or of very high quality this may be a bit clearer?
  5. Need Help 3M 680 Reflective Bubbling

    i have had this issue with the 680 as well. red and blue are usually the worst. using a roller block squeegee it's usually worse. using a regular golden squeegee pushing hard as hell gives me the best results. pushing harder than hell leaves lines in the material though, so it's a gentle...
  6. easy ways to save money without sacrificing quality.

    my mother (i'm 37, slowly taking over)had a weird paranoia that she'd need a little bit more of a color than what she has, or an oddball scrap of a specific color to change a date or something on a sign. I understood that it's dumb to buy a ten yard roll to use 6" of vinyl, so i lived with it as...
  7. easy ways to save money without sacrificing quality.

    we had about 20+ used blades sitting here and for our older gerber plotter, they are around $45/ea with shipping and they're getting harder to find. i sent them to bits n bits for sharpening. for $5/ea they came back great. i actually had to reduce the cutting force a little. i was so impressed...
  8. Laptop recommendations?

    i use a 17" alienware laptop and i love it. it hardly even gets dusty because sign stuff rarely taxes it enough to make the fans kick on. i got the fancy warranty from microcenter so when it does have an issue, they fix it there and i don't have to deal with dells overseas tech support. they...
  9. Does Fellers short everybody on small orders of "vinyl by the yard"?

    i used to pick up from the fellers warehouse near me pretty often. i would always call the warehouse to straighten things out before calling in to complain. they use complaints or any trivial mistake as a reason to take away the employee's bonuses.
  10. Fellers 2018 catalog

    a lady once told me some guys said they were using the fellers catalog as a drinking game. every time you see his pic, you drink.
  11. easy ways to save money without sacrificing quality.

    i'm not really trying to pinch pennies. it just bug me to pay 6x what something costs elsewhere. we've been in business since 1976, i have experience(although we admittedly need to get with the times in a few ways). okay, different example. i tend to snap the tips of my xacto blades pretty...
  12. easy ways to save money without sacrificing quality.

    anyone know easy ways to save money without sacrificing quality or making life harder on yourselves? example one, the swabs that are $66 on grimco are $9.40 on ebay. things like this. i'll post another tomorrow tomorrow about blades
  13. An outline problem in Flexi (or Corel)

    i do this constantly. the keyboard shortcut is: ctrl+shift+Q
  14. Question How do you cut round corners?

    i also have one of those Lassco's. works great. for 080 aluminum i use my angle grinder. cut the corners off with a cut off wheel and then round them with a blending wheel. seems easy to me but the grinder is my favorite tool
  15. Custom?

    what is this? i'm new so don't flame me too badly :) -just curious
  16. Software for scanning to Bitmaps

    i use signlab 4.95 every day as well. AI files quit importing to signlab here one day, so we've been exporting EPS files from corel into signlab instead. works better for me, but sometimes the files will open as black and white and i will need to recolor them. i've yet to figure out why. it...
  17. When you hire the "budget" sign company...

    nice. speaking of budget sign company.... i spotted this one yesterday a few blocks from my work. initially i noticed the poor install, but then i saw the spelling and LOL. -to think this made it from design, proof, production, and install unnoticed just boggles my mind
