Can't say I do. We've done some protoype packaging design for a local company and one design farmed to a China source. Just flyin by the seat of our pants.

That's interesting - you don't see the GIF with the cursor moving back and forth in the space below his post? Clever. I thought someone had hacked my system.

I'll bet artemdesigns is in there somewhere.

See random cursor on Charlie J's post

Dude - that GIF is so distracting. (but did get my attention)

You might check out this post https://signs101.com/threads/hp-latex-335-laminate-not-sticking.162096/ We've had issues with laminate sticking on latex high ink jobs, particularly in cold weather. Ours was with Arlon, so not sure it's exclusive to Avery.

Pure speculation, but I'm guessing they have seen the profit in the print industry continue to shift away from quick print and are looking to enable franchises to consolidate through acquisition and add wide format for profitability and diversification. They (Minuteman corporate) likely get a...

Greetings from Missouri, USA. Lots of broken electronics here.

You might want to remove/save main board as sometimes can use it as a trade-in rebate on a new printer. I believe HP runs those promos every so often.

Both good points. Adobe CS makes some use of the graphics processor, but the robust CPU along w/ disk read/write speed (SSD) will pay the biggest dividends. And get a large 4K monitor with 90%+ adobe color accuracy along with an i1 calibrator. 4K improves detail and having the confidence that...

I think many sign folks are naturally geeky. We like drooling over the latest equipment and obsessing over specifications that really have very little real world benefit to our business. I've built many PCs just for fun. But my logical side reminds me I'm running a business, and favors a...

A worthwhile topic Robert. I always ask. No spreadsheets for me cause I'm not that big that I need more paperwork to confirm what I'm usually hearing first hand. If I felt I had too much business, I would raise prices or focus on more profitable lines of business. Targeting the lead...

I have the rigid - about 950F on heat and lasts about 20-30 min per refill. Battery seems to never wear down because running only blower and igniter.. Got an adapter on ebay fron an Aussie who prints them with a 3d printer, so can use with my Bosch batteries. A little bulky but one of the...

Would be nice to be laying sod in December.

Your reference is an example of the superficial attempt to rewrite history by NPR and other progressive leaning organizations. Do a Google search and it seems that's all you can find are theories trying to discredit the quote. But curious minds might want to actually read the source...

Now, back to business. We're seeing a slowdown but usually do mid Dec-mid Jan. Looks like we'll end year about even ales $ with last year (a good one) and better on profit Projects looking OK first quarter but nothing like we've been seeing. And we don't have all the COVID signage bonus...

Self reliance; there's a quality to admire.

Now that you mention it, I have a friend in the print biz we do work for. He used to pay in about a week. He started using a service and now its 30 days, until I complained.

I'm not an accountant either, so certainly not an expert. But when i set the biz up, my understanding that businesses that carry a lot of inventory (like distributors or retailers) benefit from accrual basis and light made-to order manufacturing where little inventory is kept benefit from cash...

I was thinking the same. We have several local painters that specialize in farm equipment, trailers etc.. Usually single stage paint that looks good from a few feet away but less than automotive quality finish. Often recommend paint of dominant base color with partial wrap or decals for...
