  4. Surfacing MDF Spoil board issue

    Hello All, I went to surface a new 4'x8' sheet of 1/2" MDF that is being used as my spoil board. Everything was going great until it got about 10" from the outer edge and the corners started to lift a good 1/4"-3/8". We started the surfacing in the center and cut outward.

  13. Cartridge recycling?

    I know this has been tossed around before, but does anyone know where we can recycle ink cartridges? Epson and Mimaki. Staples used to do it but I'm not sure anymore.

    Gotcha...good for you. Seems like you know your local economy then. Good luck with it.
  15. Is my pricing too high for printed vinyl?

    If its something specific we dont do, then yes we will consider it, but with the caveat that we have no responsibility if something goes wrong. But if we can supply it at near or at the same cost then we suggest they purchase it from us. I'll tell you why. What happens when something goes wrong...
