  1. World Cup

    I hope they do Niel. It's distracting to everyone watching - either at home on TV or in the crowd. Imagine paying top dollar to see your team and having to put up with that constant sound. Does it affect the player's concentration? I would think so. And to uneducated plebs like me who can't...
  2. World Cup

    Socceroos trounced by Germany 4-0! Gonna make it hard for them to hang on after that drubbing.
  3. Solar Powered Sign Shop

    You've done a great job there - it looks like a big undertaking and you've utilised everything at your disposal to make it work. We have (had) a similar solar rebate scheme here in Oz. It's since been scaled back, but essentially the govt would rebate $8,000 on a $10,000 1kwatt system. Then...
  4. World Cup

    Well be beat England at rugby last night - 27 to 17 if that counts for anything? Won the womens French open tennis last week... okay I'm starting to get desperate now umm, won the womens snowboarding event at last winter games!! Go Torah!! hehe I'm done.
  5. World Cup

    Well the Poms could only manage a draw against Team America, thanks to some pitiful goalkeeping from the mighty England's keeper. Hilarious.
  6. World Cup

    I tried watching a game tonight, I really did. Who's idea was it to give everyone in the crown a big loud plastic horn?? Got a headache after 5 minutes, gave up after 10. Overrated.
  7. Mimaki Get Off your A--.

    And then there's the other ugly red headed stepchild - the CJV. That one gets beat around the head a bit in these parts...:covereyes:
  8. Rasterlinkers

    Yeah, all my profiles were laying down too much ink too. The biggest benefit I got was by altering the density to -20. Color Edit/Color Adjustment/ add new color adjustment file. Then select that filename and choose Density/Whole/-20. Then update the condition management with the new color...
  9. Rasterlinkers

    Any other Rasterlink users out there? I actually don't use it myself- primarily. Having looked at it thoroughly when CJV30 machine first arrived, I, like many others, was unimpressed with the print quality. Being that I've made my own printmodes and profiles in Signlab, I happily use that...
  10. pantone chart

    Just had a look for you - 2945c is very close to Arlon 006 blue, or Oracal 551 series Marine Blue 509, or 3M Vivid blue 7725-17
  11. where to buy blower fan?

    Okay, here it is in action, just in case you're having trouble visualizing it - what with the spider n all...
  12. where to buy blower fan?

    Just in case you can't quite see it...
  13. where to buy blower fan?

    I just use a pedestal fan. It sits by the side of the printer and blows across the vinyl towards the exhaust fan mounted in nearby wall. Helps with fume extraction as well as drying. Here's a pic I just took. And yes that's a real spider sitting on the vinyl...
  14. rip software for jf1631

    I've recently discovered there is some color management in Rasterlink 4. Quite a lot of options actually. I've just installed new input profiles and tweaked up an existing media profile and it's made a big difference to the output. I'll put up a more detailed post later, but for now I...
  15. Help with printed contour cut wall graphics

    Re 638M Wall Art: It's solvent printable. Has a soft pvc feel to it and a weird clingy but not aggressive adhesive. You can even reposition the graphics. If (when) you have a problem with the 3651 coming off, you can fix it with spray adhesive. Something like 3M super 77. Take a big piece...
  16. What's your opinion on Signlab?

    Install those cutters - you'll love it. Just go to File/Install/cutters - it'll have your Gerber plotters listed. Put a check box next to the ones you want to install. Then go to Cut/plotting defaults - select your driver and set it up.
  17. Ink Limits

    Yet another pointless interjection from you sjm. Please either stick to the point or stop interfering. Preferably the latter.
  18. Ink Limits

    Were discussing the first step - setting individual ink restrictions. Prior to linearizing (calibrating) and prior to setting total ink limits. The purpose of this is to lop off any unnecessary ink usage beforehand and thereby achieve a better linearization curve. And consequently a better...
  19. Ink Limits

    I usually start at the lightest patch and work up the ramp. It seems a bit more intuitive when you compare the reading and see just where it stops making any difference to the deltaE. Also don't discount using you're eyes. As eye4clr said, you can't get a true reading for Yellow so once you've...
  20. Ink Limits

    Hi Jason, if you're lucky, eye4clr or Bly might wander past and be able to tell you exactly what to do. I haven't used Versaworks profiling so I'm not much good to you. But we had a good discussion on another forum where eye4clr in particular was most helpful at detailing the steps involved...
