  1. Need help with a tradeshow event in Fort Washington, Maryland

    I sent him a message to see if he's interested and wanting me to pass along his contact info. Will let you know. He's a dude I've known online for a bunch of years and met in person a couple of times. Pretty solid, keeps his word, fairly mechanically minded, etc. so even though he's probably...
  2. Need help with a tradeshow event in Fort Washington, Maryland

    If you don't wind up finding someone on here, LMK. I know a guy about an hour away that may be able to help. He's not in the industry but I'd bet you could talk him through it ahead of time if you get desperate.
  3. Suggestions 1-shot discontinuing Pantone formula requests

    Don't forget you don't have to mix up a large batch initially when doing a color match. When I'm doing a custom color of gunkote, I'll start my mixing sometimes in drops, occasionally in milliliters using pipettes. Find your ratio and then upscale it. May occasionally need slight tweaking at...
  4. White or Clear acrylic for push through.

    I had to refurbish a push-through for a church a couple years ago. It was clear with white on the facing of the letters and they edge-painted the stand-out letters blue. It was quite stunning when it was new. But about 6 years later when I got to it, the vinyl had shrank away from the edges...
  5. The next generation of adobe users now work among us

    freetone is put out by Stuart Temple and available as an add-on library for adobe products if one wished to go that route. It has a remarkable similarity to pantone colors :cool: https://www.culturehustleusa.com/products/freetone
  6. Question Which material would be best for a work trailer set of decals?

    My honest first impression was "oh my that is REALLY REALLY BUSY". From a visual standpoint, you're trying to fit too much in which makes me not want to bother reading ANY of it. Just my dos centavos.
  7. Embroidery Digitizing Services

    The irony of link spamming a link spam post is icing on the cake. Well done. :rolleyes:
  8. What are you using for showroom samples?

    Question about that - does the Sign Materials Swatch Book contain anything that's NOT in the Full Sample Pack?
  9. Lamination problem

    you know how if you get a dust speck there's a spot around it where the laminate isn't stuck down and it makes a little pocket? Silvering kinda looks like that but without the speck in the middle. It's just an area where the adhesive hasn't fully "wetted out" adhering to the surface below. It...
  10. So, my takeout pizza was not ready...

    I'm hungry. Wish I was sitting in front of this instead of the computer. That is all.
  11. Laser cutter "pitting" on the back side

    if you're like me and get whacky ideas to try and see the grid pattern fluorescent ceiling light diffuser panels at Lowes or Home Depot and think "hey I bet I can use that as an acrylic honeycomb because it's way cheaper", I'll save you the trouble of finding out yourself that your pieces will...
  12. FL Complete screen printing shop

    Bumping this to the top. If you've any interest hit me up, I need the space back sooner rather than later. Location just outside of Gainesville, FL. Open to offers at this point. And like I said I am more than happy to be a resource to the buyer to help them get up and running in pretty short...
  13. Question Everything I've learned about perf cut/die cut stickers

    I'm glad I read all the way to the last sentence because I was like, "OMG he's cutting vinyl on his laser. Wonder if he doesn't know or is obstinate?" :roflmao:
  14. Big Squeegee a HUGE Help!

    What Stacey said
  15. Has Anyone E V E R Gotten................................................................

    I'm pretty sure that's just because the dry erase ink in the marker is solvent based. You're just rubbing a felt nib full of solvent onto the other ink. Seems like there may be more economical ways to do that but what do I know.
