  1. Coordinating Edge to Graphtec plotter?

    Check the classified in this forum...Devries has a Gerber GSX for sale for $750.00. I think instead of messing around trying to make gerber and graphtec "get along", I'd be looking at going that route. Hope you get it figured out. Dane
  2. Installation Rates, small jobs

    I charge the same rate no matter what I'm doing. Dane
  3. Something to help New Sign People.

    Only wish I had read something like this when I started instead of learning first hand. Great post, also printing out a copy. Dane
  4. What Options to suggest to Customer ?

    I think I'd lean towards the expanded PVC. When it's cut on a router, leaves a nice clean edge. Thus, no need for edge cap. Dane

    Congrats!
  6. Omega 3.0

    I too jumped on the band wagon and upgraded to 2.6.1. Like isign I find out about the free design station. When I called Gerber to inquire about the offer they basically told me "sorry you've already upgraded, we've got your money and if you want the design station you'll have to pay". And, "oh...
  7. Help getting started, looking to buy stuff.

    It tickles me that you (jplacki) think it'll be "less time consuming, less aggravating, and less expensive" to do it yourself rather than take it to someone who already knows his/her craft. You could have ALL of his race cars done for the rest of your racing career for the money that you...
  8. Where is the image located?

    Thank You for your imput fenris. I had already uploaded the deleted photo. But ya got me thinkin'. I was trying to tell the program that the image was in "my pictures", and it (the puter) wasn't going there. I had already tried the copy and paste into a new window, that didn't work (INSERT...
  9. Where is the image located?

    Outputting JPG. image with clipping path to Edge. when I hit the print button in GSP plot it's asking me where the image is located? I have printed this image before and have never had this issue come up. I did delete the original image from "my pictures", but have since re-loaded it. And, it's...
  10. What to look out for in a used Gerber

    I have a Gerber Edge. I've had it for 6 years and it does a great job. I would ask to see a sample print. Not something that had been previously printed, but have them run a full width print for you. Look for fine lines where the print is missing (looks like fine straight scratches). That would...
  11. Looking for Walleye Clipart or high Res. photo

    Does anyone know where I can find Walleye (Pickerel) clipart or high resolution photo? This is for my personal boat. When I'm not making signs I'm either hunting or fishing. Been looking for a Walleye with an open mouth (showing the teeth) as if it were going for bait. I don't mind purchasing...
  12. Design Station cost

    I started off with Omega 1.56 and last spring upgraded to Omega 2.6.1, but no design station. Looking to design from the recliner......lol. Not lazy, just a real bad back.

    Anyone have an idea of the cost of a Omega 2.6.1 design station? -Reagards, Dane
  15. Omega 2.5 compatible with Vista?

    Last I heard, Omega was not compatible with Windows Vista. I'm thinking of updating my computer (gotta have the speed). Best Regards, -Dane
  16. Ever thrown anyone out of your shop?

    Haven't thrown anyone out yet. But, I've had customers trying to beat me up on my pricing (after the job was done). I tell em, "Guess you should have shopped before you bought". Or, "Here's the phone book, call another sign shop". They just look at me with a glazed look on their face...
  17. Graphics for Race car

    I do 20-25 race cars each year. I use Vector Art Mega Collection 1 & 2. I can find anything I need. Just ordered 3 this morning and can't wait for it to arrive. I'm sure it will be chocked full of new things I can use. -Dane
  18. Hardware or Software?

    Not sure if this is a hardware or softare issue? I have the gerber edge 1, GS15+ Plotter and an Ioline Studio 7-36, running Omega 2.5. In the middle of the job last week while bopping between plotters, all of a sudden when switching back to the Ioline plotter, it didn't remove the panel lines. I...
  19. What brand of vinyl do you use?

    I was using Avery, went to Oracal 651 & 851, have been recently working with General Formulations. The GF weeds incredibly well. It's supposed to be the Amercan version of the Oracal 651 and it's made in Michigan. And, I gotta support Michigan industries.
