  1. Let's Build a DTF Printer (For as cheap as possible!)

    Fair! I had no idea what was in the middle. Knew it could be a little gummy when you use a v-groove tool. But that's about it. Well, I know that I learned something today.
  2. Is your shop prepared for the upcoming barter system?

    I mean....basically hahaha.
  3. Let's Build a DTF Printer (For as cheap as possible!)

    Would the foam core of the ACM handle the heat?
  4. Is your shop prepared for the upcoming barter system?

    Until an iron clad value system is established it will always boil down to personal preference.

    It's not peer pressure. It's just your turn.

    It's not peer pressure. It's just your turn.
  6. Hello!

    That's uhhh...a fair point. I hadn't even noticed. But it will be realigned lol.
  7. Anybody see...............................................................................

    To make it to the end of the thread and still have no closure!!!
  8. What's the thickest/deepest item you printed directly on to with a UV Flatbed? Something more than golf balls

    I printed on 3" Ultra Board once. Not super interesting though hahaha
  9. Hello!

    So, I've been on here for about 4ish years. Maybe a little less. Not sure. Figured it was time to actually introduce myself. My name is Patrick Farrell. I am the DTS "specialist" and run a flatbed Vanguard VK300D-HS for C.G. Witvoet & Sons. We primarily deal in store displays (basically...
  10. Vanguard flatbed color calibration

    Check out the Nix sensor. Far cheaper alternative and IMO works just as well. We have a VK300d-HS here. But we use onyx. Grey/gray and reds are the bane of my existence.
  11. Help with making aluminum signs!

    I used to work for Weller Reman. All of the cast iron carriers for the rear/front differentials and transmissions all had plates on them noting who built it and date of manufacture. In the case of a rebuild and the cast iron is good to be used again the plates are removed so that the new builder...
  12. Haptic Printing.....

    The wood grain stuff I do myself. I was lucky enough to have already printed a 4'x8' sheet of wood grain for a customer. So I already had a hi-res image. The color change however was not my doing. It's an on-going challenge between the American offices of Durst and the German offices. Who can...
  13. Haptic Printing.....

    I mean basically yes hahaha. There is a clipping mask on the 2 images making alternating sections.
  14. Haptic Printing.....

    The carbon fiber is fun to do. Best thus far has been wood docks or patios. Or brushed stainless.
  15. Haptic Printing.....

    Uh yeah hahaha super time consuming. If we had the 10 head upgrade it would be tons easier. I mean it's not like it's hard. Just would be easier to tell it to put 18 layers of white and then color. Instead of re-printing the white layer 9 times with the ink multiplier. It's all first world...
  16. Haptic Printing.....

    Has anyone had any experience in Haptic Printing? Basically, it's using layers of usually white ink to create a texture under the print. I have just started dabbling in it myself for fun at work to keep the white ink flowing good on slow days. We only run a 5 head (4 color 1 white) Vanguard...
  17. Need Help line on print

    I think they wanted to know what material you were printing on. I have noticed on my printer that if the surface isn't completely flat, the colors display differently because of the different angles of light.
  18. Onyx 22.5 Problems

    Of that I am aware haha. And it usually takes hours for me. Or a server reboot which everyone absolutely loves
  19. Onyx 22.5 Problems

    There have been several times in the past few weeks when I haven't even been able to get editor or rip-queue to even load properly. "Not enough licenses" We have only 2 users. We both have our own licenses for our individual machines. No one else has access to it. At all. No big surprise ONYX...
