Whatever their reasoning is for the rush is irrelevant. I agree that it is annoying but it doesn't change the situation or what you are able to gain from their self created (or not) predicament. The on time, right or cheap thing is cute and makes people feel power but it's a fallacy. You...

We have a customer with LD's on every job. Luckily, their vendor options are few and far between so we do not accept it in the contract. We sprayed a beacon tower for the airport a few years ago and it was the same thing. They went in circles trying to find someone else but eventually came...

Rush fees sour the whole deal. I may suck it up and eat a rush fee if we need something quick but I sure as shit will not go back as it feels like they are taking advantage of your bad situation. I know people here will disagree and that's fine, it is just how I have always looked at things...

From an owners perspective, this is an annoyance but these are the things that make you money when you squeeze them in. It also can buy you time with them on future projects, rush a few through and sit on a few. You just have to train them that you CAN do things fast but you are not going to...

Yeah no crap. You know they didn't build the building with randomly placed structural elements, you would think they would at least measure those things out so it didn't look like such a "not my problem" job.

I'll withhold my disdain for the HP printers here. Never had an issue with 444lse in 30 or 54 and we've ran a fair amount of it using a canned PVC profile. They have icc profiles on their site but don't know how the HP mystery machines work. If nothing else,call them. Their customer service...

Slowing down for thicker materials helps quite a bit. Check how much blade is exposed from the holder, 1/2 the thickness of a credit card or a little more seems to be a good starting point.

You have to set that all up on the plotter. That's the first thing you do after putting it together.

Need to setup a kiss cut and thru cut path separately or you can skip the kiss cut and use the cut line as a thru cut. You do it in gosign

I think most of them are painted, seam sealer goes on before painting. I usually cut them but don't trim it back. I have no formal training so take that with a grain of salt.

We just got one with the OPOS cam, it is very impressive.

It's clear and believe it or not, 100% opaque. After using this material for a few years, I prefer the clear adhesive over gray.

Put a drop of oil in the blade holder. +1 on OEM Mimaki blades, they are pricey but last forever. I used to use the generic blades on another machine and would have to change them all of the time. On our CJV, the pressure for 6.5 mil cal vinyl/lam is usually in the 120-130 range and it cuts...

It took a lot of restraint to not post that clip again for the 100th time

2nd on Substance but we use 3755

Name checks out. 100g isnt going to make it go out of alignment.

Did you smash the keyboard typing that?
