I just tried out the Rollepro on a trailer with rivets. The thing seems to work great but it does not seal the rivet down absolutely all the way. I can't find close up pictures anywhere so I took some. Am I doing this right?
Are the rivets pictured installed as well as the Rollepro can do it...
As the title says, cant get this thing to cut an 8 foot long decal for the side of a trailer. The decal is General Formulations 230 with 231 lam. The rollers slip and the print skews. The manual is pretty vague about how big this thing will cut. Looks like about a yard by a yard to me... if I...
I can't get my SP54V to cut to crop marks. I don't think the issue is it can't find the marks. It doesn't even look for the marks... you can’t even set the crop marks manually and have it follow them. It just sets service call 0111 as soon as click "print".
I installed a new crop mark sensor...
I noticed that the OEM cartridge is a bag of ink inside a plastic box that can be refilled from the ink outlet end by a blunt syringe. (the kind used for dispensing fluids in labs) I'm using aftermarket ink in cartridges and I can get the same ink in liters for 1/2 the price. Just wondered if...
Ran out of ink and I don't have a spare cartridge. It's a holiday tomorrow (Wednesday) so I can't order any more until Thursday and I won't see it until Friday. Is this going to be bad?

I have a project that would be ideal for edge lighting. Its a wind blocking panel out side a stores entry door. The owner is worried people on cell phones will walk into it so I have been asked to put some graphics on it to make it more visible.(it's clear Lexan)
I think edge lighting would be...
I'm quoting a job that will involve applying a 12 foot by 3 foot decal to the side of a trailer that has corrugations and rivets. The job will entail 30 to 40 trailers a year for the foreseeable future.
I can go and install a dummy graphic and time it but I am assuming I will get better at...
Can anyone give me a supplier for metal look acrylic sheet that I can laser cut into letters? Preferably in Canada. I have a customer asking for this and I don't know who carries it. Or can I just stick metallic film to acrylic and cut it out?

I made some changes to my computer and Photoshop wants to be re-activated. Problem is Adobe no longer has a way to activate it. Can anyone help me? I can no longer use the Photoshop software that I paid for in good faith.

Does it stay stuck? Does it fall off or go funny? I need it to perform for 5 years on the side of a Freightliner. I'm asking because it's 1/3rd the cost of what I use now.(KIWA)

Check this out. My new laser cutter cuts lettering to depth into 15lb HDU and then cuts it out. No more sandblasting for me! This took 2 or 3 minutes to cut. It's about 6" x 3.5". I'm still figuring out how to use the laser but it shows great promise as a sign making tool.

I need a cheap computer to run my new laser cutter. I'm thinking some sort of netbook or laptop. That way I can drag it to and from my office computer to load cut files as needed.
I use Corel X4 with a plugin from the laser cutter manufacturer. Nothing will be designed on the shop computer...
