  1. The joys of customers...

    It's tough to choose sometimes, I get it.
  2. Your Physical Health

    Count your blessings, you could have been a roofer for 31 years.
  3. Second surface printing scratches

    Substance print vinyl has an opaque white back and works good on reverse print acrylic, much better than 651. We print on their 3150 laminate and back with 3750 vinyl. It is also nice that you can run a bleed and have some fudge room since the material is 54 rather than 48. Makes things...
  4. The joys of customers...

    I would have lost my mind and then some. The local garbage company brought us one full of trash and we thought that was bad but this one here wins the all time award.
  5. The joys of customers...

    Dents and scratches? Go right over them and they disappear.
  6. Customer interaction tracking

    I'm pretty sure salesforce will do that. It's been years since I have used it but IIRC, it had that ability.
  7. The joys of customers...

    Everyone wants things fast, they don't need it fast. I don't really understand the competitive environment for wraps but having the file ready but waiting until it shows up to double check before printing seems like a more efficient way to do these. It sucks to have a vehicle out of service...
  8. The joys of customers...

    If they run it through the carwash, tell them to get the cheapest wash. No wax, rain-x and definitely no tire shine. I'd rather have a dirty van than deal with silicone all around the wheel wells. I'm not sure how all the wrap shops work but we won't print anything new until the vehicle is at...
  9. Small shop using Latex 365 looking to upgrade, tell me what I should buy!

    I think the S40 would be too slow if you're running semi trailers on a regular basis
  10. Looking for Stock art

    We use 123rf.com sometimes, they do the credit thing.
  11. Graphics Question

    Well that's part of it too. Gotta make sure you're all on the same planet. I hate hard quoting, takes too much time. We can usually get most jobs on a ballpark range price which leaves good room for potential screwups. Just don't charge the high end for every job, it makes you look honest...
  12. Dibond Box signs

    No way. They have staff architects, site planners, engineers and marketing on the payroll. They all are involved in designing these PUDs. It's well within reason that they would include signage design the same as they spec specific mailbox posts and light poles. They want things a certain...
  13. Graphics Question

    Zendavor is correct, ballpark it til they get serious. Some people just want to know if it's gonna be $100 or $5000 before they even start thinking about the logistics. I walk when people turn a simple pricing request into a big dog and pony show.
  14. Dibond Box signs

    I'd use 4x4 aluminum posts and use a brake with 063 to go up, over and down the front, fasten with a monobolt at the bottom then spray them blue.
  15. What's this called?

    Thanks everyone. Can it be routed with a straight or mortising bit or will that muck up the inner core?
  16. Amazon, UPS, FedEx

    They are trying to deliver stuff that I order for the shop at 9pm at night and call me. It's annoying. They are a total disaster. They have idiots running around in their personal cars delivering as side jobs, idiots in vans everywhere you look and still can't do the job that UPS and USPS...
  17. What's this called?

    I think we got it, color core?
  18. What's this called?

    I'm trying to find a vendor that makes these. It's like a sandwich panel with the top routed out. They do not want vinyl, has to be this.
  19. Amazon, UPS, FedEx

    I don't see how Amazon is sustainable the way they run their deliveries. I suppose you can run a disorganized money sucking venture when you have an infinite amount of investors money to lose and a massively inflated stock valuation. Walmart is sitting on the sidelines waiting for amazon to...
  20. Graphtec FC9000 Changing Conditions?

    We have tried using barcodes through CM4 and it is a disaster. Sometimes it cuts, sometimes it wont, sometimes it heads straight to cut and ruins the print, sometimes you can reboot it 5 times and it will magically work. It randomly stops doing auto cut sheet or returns to the front of the...
