  1. Exhaust Fan Question

    I second the AC Infinity fan! These things are AMAZING, cheap, they move a TON of air, and they're relatively quiet compared to the BUZZ and RATTLE you get with most cheap, stamped galvanized fans. I have a single 12" fan in my 1200 sq/ft print room, and I have mine reduced down to 8" and it...
  2. Removal of DX4 manifold screw? Help! -- 1/2 way through manifold replacement!)

    Thanks! I ended up destroying the head trying to get the two manifold screws out. They were VERY well seized in place by old ink. The heads of the screws are SO fine that the bitting quickly stripped out, so the ONLY chance I had of breaking them loose was to "slot" the heads with a dremel...
  3. Anyone own a Mimaki CJV330? Your thoughts?

    Great idea! Don't know what I was thinking.. It's a little tough to get through because the presenter has a very thick accent, and english isn't his first language, but you get the idea of what he's saying/doing none the less!
  4. Anyone own a Mimaki CJV330? Your thoughts?

    Edit: Sorry, I just found a very informative video about the XY Slitter option on this printer that answered all of my questions, and I don't know how to delete a thread! So feel free to let me know what you think about this printer if you own one.. but the main question of the thread was...
  5. Removal of DX4 manifold screw? Help! -- 1/2 way through manifold replacement!)

    Is there a trick to removing the 2 screws that hold the print head and plastic manifold together? (see photo) I broke one of the nipples so I bought a replacement manifold and I'm trying to swap it out, but neither of the two tiny phillips screws will BUDGE! I tried every size phillips...
  6. Dymax Doming Resin

    I wish you would have asked the questions here in the thread itself! The answers might have ended up helping another user down the road!
  7. Laminator roller replacement/repair

    Thank you guys for the responses! Damn I love this forum. It's the only forum on the web where you can almost always count on getting good, relevant, helpful replies!
  8. Laminator roller replacement/repair

    Hey, anyone know where I can get new rollers for a Seal 45 heat assisted laminator.. or where I can get them re-lined/refurbished? I bought this laminator used and the previous owner had gotten a bit randy with the razor knife in a couple spots so the main rollers both have a couple spots where...
  9. 3d printing letters

    This is really disappointing to hear, as I too saw some YouTube videos and have some experience with FDM 3D printing on a smaller scale, I got rather excited at the idea of being able to produce professional looking colorful, LED signs using something I already know and use (3D printing). In...
  10. Refacing polycarbonate lightbox sign - pull permits?

    Thanks for the great info! Unfortunately in this scenario, the business owner is my little sister! So I have a deep brotherly obligation to try to help her out as much as possible. I will call the city tomorrow and ask (or do you think I should I GO there in person to inquire?) Thanks!
  11. Refacing polycarbonate lightbox sign - pull permits?

    I've owned a little commercial sign company for 15 years, but I've always focused on small cut decals and inkjet signs, decals, banners etc. My sister recently bought her own business and I need to help her reface her sign. Since I've never taken on a job like this before I have no idea what...
  12. Led flex tubing

    Are my language settings for the website or chrome messed up or something? Or are a bunch of these replies in a totally different language?
  13. Need to resurrect old sign business and upgrade all equipment

    This is good advise. I would add, don't fall into the trap of buying an old and/or used printer, or a cheap, chinese printer! Both cases are going to end up costing you a ton of money to get (and keep) them working. If you really want to buy a printer and you're on a budget, I would...
  14. Need replacement media roll holder/flanges for 3" cores, any suggestions?

    I'm talking about the expanding core "flange wheels" that press into the ends of a roll of inkjet vinyl to hold it up/off the media rollers. I finally broke one of the the OEM Roland ones that came with my printer, and I'm in need of some replacements. I'd prefer to not have to spend...
  15. Good method for cutting (slitting) whole rolls/logs of vinyl?

    As everyone else has alread pointed out, there appears to be shortages on different types of vinyl across the board! And as such, I had to resort to buying a 60" roll of some vinyl that I needed to complete an important job. I bought a 60" roll with the intentions of cutting it in half and...
