Use an Engine Hoist I recommend renting an engine hoist (10 or 20 bucks) to set up a laminator. Works a treat and saves your back ! Also, it becomes a one man job.

Sign Lasts Too Long Sometimes a sign lasts too long. Other times, not long enough. I had a thoroughly disagreeable customer about 10 years ago when I got into the business. Lied about having a finished design, the price I quoted (not in writing)...delivered a dirty truck for a wrap and was...

Great Job Wasn't slow to load on my computer. Great job! I just started messing around with WordPress. Very Powerful! Haven't reached your level yet, but working on it !

Have the Seller Demo the Machine Regarding buying a used machines, my advice would be the make sure the seller demos the machine for you. We've owned a couple of Rolands (SP300 and VS540) and have been very happy with them, but I'm sure other printers do a great job too. When we sold the...

The Silverdome only cost a half million No judgement on the crowd sourcing here. But a bit of background: The Silverdome was purchased a few years ago for a $500,000 ! Last year, the company that owns the dome (not sure if it is the same that bought it for $500,000) sold the "stuff" that was...

Just a Thought My thought is that the laminate came apart from the vinyl because the ink wasn't fully dry. Nothing to do with outgassing or outgassing was just a contributing factor. Thought is based on experience - lessons learned (don't want to go into the sordid details). For example, you...

Typo Typo: "Atlanic" on first page. Otherwise nice.

Most likely the encoder strip. If I recall, you can clean it with a lintless cloth and rubbing alcohol. See the forum for more info. My memory could be fading on the use of rubbing alcohol. We traded in our SP300 a couple years ago (for a new Roland). It was a great machine.

The Profit It wasn’t so much that the sign man didn’t shine a good light on the industry. I didn’t see him as unethical. A little (maybe more than a little) unaware of issues facing his employees, customers, and family perhaps. What really bit him was his argument with a former customer. The...

Run Away ! If it has been sitting for six months, the heads are (best case) clogged or worst case wrecked ($3,500 or so). Also, it doesn't run. Also, it is a discontinued model. But if you want to tinker, maybe 100 bucks? Or get the owner to pay you to haul it away.

On His Car On His Car: 3M or Avery cast material with cast overlaminate.

New Trick You might try sending the file to another location on your computer, then try opening it. No idea why it works, but it has worked more than once with our Flexi 8.x.

We are soon going to install a 20' X 3' sign face in a lightbox. Box previously had a formed sign and we may have to cut away part of a center upright (Looks to be two light boxes placed adjacent to one another.) Anyway, everyone on the shopping strip has a seamless sign of about 20' or so, so...

Print the greys. Cut the maroon.

One more tip about cleaning the encoder strip...It is easily reached by lifting up the clear cover and you can clean it by simply lifting the cover. However, you can clean it much better by removing the clear cover and the metal cover at the top of the machine. No need to remove the encoder...

Had the same problem today. My suggestion: After you clean the encoder strip with Isopropyl 70% and a lint free cloth as described here, run an initialize limit procedure. The instructions are on YouTube. With luck, that will have you up and running.

Let me reply to my own reply (checking my condition to see what condition my condition is in)....Just turned off the heater, but kept the dryer on low (38C) and we finally got through a 4 foot run. It only took us 25 feet of material to get there !!!!
