Need 60 4" x 20" pieces of banner material to put cut vinyl on

[Schoensignsgraphics]

I need qty 60 4" tall x 20" wide pieces of white banner material to lay down black cut vinyl on. Business names are going on these banner materials and a local booster club is putting velcro on them to stick to a big banner they already have.The banner won't be outside very long at a time so a lightweight banner material is fine. Anyone know a source for these pre-cut pieces or am I just as well off to buy a 24" x 10 yd roll of banner material and cut my own?

cut your own.

So... you "could" buy a roll of 24" or 30" banner ($50-$60)...THEN cut it down into 60 individual pieces....THEN run 20 + feet of 24" black vinyl ($15) through your plotter....THEN weed it all....THEN mask it all ($5)....THEN cut each name down.....THEN apply 60 individual names on those 60 individual pieces....all in all using up about 2-3 hours of your day (which if you're being fair to yourself you should be billing out at around $50/hr or more...) So all in all you'll have about $70-$80 in materials and 2-3 hours of time wrapped up in this....

OR

You set everything up on 1 big banner with cut lines, place an order with Signs365, Signs2Trade, etc. and have them print a 2' x 24' banner (or thereabouts) for roughly half that cost with no hems or grommets and simply cut it down 1 time when it arrives...collect check and walk away.

Good call FatCat. That's what I will do.

Some people like to do things the hard way.

Agreed, even if it had to be cut vinyl, we'd still lay it on as one piece and cut to size after it's all applied.
