shop

Hi All, I currently run a smallish print shop (department of a larger company) and we are going to be moving to a new building, that we are building ourselves. I currently have a 4x8ft UV flatbed, a HP360, and AGL 60" laminator and a 7ftx8ft Zund cutter. (oh, and a Canon laser printer that we...

I have a body shop account that needs me to remove and reinstall vinyl just like this van. Remove the same amount of lettering and re install it. I guess comcast has everything pre cut and just sends them out to the shop when they are in need of new ones. So it would just be for the labor. What...

Hi, i have started doing color change wraps three months ago and i have 6 cars fully wrapped so far and now i have two customers, one with boat and another one with mini van, who needs commercial graphics. I can do the design, but i don't know if there is a place where i can order prints online...

Now, I'm sure everyone will chime in and say how much they love their HP 570 and they print 10 full rolls a day and it also makes a lovely cup of coffee that never gets cold, but the price range of that machine is really beyond what I can ask the shop owner to spend on new equipment. We are...

While i had my tiny 5 day holiday during New Year, i was looking at my accounting & numbers in general. Since i am 1 man show, i always try to find ways to make more / cut down expenses. After 2 days, i figured that i will be making a big change for me: 1) Buying bigger house with a shop 2)...

Seems like any roll I feed through my printers, buckles up on the back end. I see it happen as soon as I lock my rollers on my printer. I have a mutoh 1624 valuejet. My shop is pretty cold this time of year. Could it be bad rollers or the weather affecting the material?

Who else is taking time off at Xmas? That is the only time in whole year when i take any time off at all, so i am always excited lol. My last business day is December 23rd - will be cleaning shop & organizing stuff for next year. Then taking off & won't come to the shop til the January 4th :)

We post videos on instagram from time to time and we like to have a little fun... enjoy! https://youtu.be/8OH0sicpI24

Hello to all. Just starting out on my own. Previously ran a small garment screen print shop and most recently did layouts for a local sign shop. I am starting up in a home office looking for extra income. Really love working with vinyl. My question to all of you... what is a good vinyl that I...

New location is 21' x 90' x 8'. Mainly one large room with a couple restrooms and a storage room in the back. I want to separate the front 24 feet with a wall to create the showroom/front desk area. There is no heating so I plan to install 9 baseboard heaters, two thermostats and a good...

Little bit about my background. I have been an artist my whole life and received a degree in graphic design. After college got a job at a print production shop. Left that job for a real design job at a vehicle wrap and sign business. The shop was literally starting from the ground up. Taught...

We just finished the preliminary work today for our addition to our shop. We made a wheel chair accessible ramp and railings for our side entrance because with the remodel we lose our front entrance for a month or so. Put out the signage and ran ads in the local newspaper to redirect customers...

The Chocolate Shoppe was designed in the late 1990s but had remained un-made until now. It was compiled using Signlab software from 429 pieces in over 30 colours! The entire design was later welded in various stages so that not one awkward overlap exists throughout the entire design, with all...
