I had a SP-300 with color-rip and I also used corel. I also had issues with colors and couldn't quite nail them down. Its not the best way around it, but I actually printed a PMS color chart on each media that I used and used that as a guide. This becomes a nightmare if you do not keep good...

I've been struggling with the same issue being a one man shop and I've posted about it before, when to hire, who to hire and what to delegate. This last year was an absolute blur and the fall has been just as busy. I moved into a new shop last april and still haven't unpacked, I'm working with a...

Thanks for all the thoughts. I appreciate it.

When do you know if it is time to add a full time employee? After a long and stressful work week and no end in site - this is the question that is on my mind...and I'm wondering what deciding factor made your one person shop into a two + person shop.

Has anyone heard from the The New Kit in Northport, NY ? I have been unable to get a hold of them

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the advise, I know mr. murphy well and he visits often. I also do not mind taking a risk. I like the idea of setting the money aside instead of purchasing the warranty - just in case. Decision made!

My warranty is about up on my SP-540i - I've had it just about 1 year. Should I renew the factory warranty or not? Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I use oracal as well and I do not use mask on panels, I agree, clean, clean, clean, install wet and you'll be just fine. Good Luck.

Can anyone recommend a wholesale LED/Sign Manufacturing company. I'm looking for a product similar to Wayne Industries E-Z Led that they have since discontinued. I really liked the product - it had the LED integrated into the sign cabinet. Any help or recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Looks like a Panther produced by vinyl express.

Just a quick update! My 14 ft overhead door is getting installed this week - I think I'm more excited about this than anything else. The rest of the build is underway and I can not wait till its complete. Its nice to hear the great news of all the shops that are growing/moving. I do have a...

thanks everyone for the information. Have a great weekend!

I'm not located in a huge city - I'll do some more calling tomorrow though. Like I said, I went to a local plastics supplier in my area and they quoted the job provided me a sample. I called to place the order and they decided it was to small of an order. For a worst case scenario - can...

thanks for the tip - I just checked out their website.

thank you for helping me out with that. I have 3 qty: 30 x 36, 1 qty: 36 x 36 and 1 qty: 36 x 78. I'm going to give this a try in-house - I just put a brand new 60 tooth blade on the saw-traxx. I'll practice on some scraps, until I get a handle on the process. I do have another order coming...

Looks like we have a similar project going on - I've priced the 1/4 clear acrylic from Garston Sign Supply. They have a bunch in stock.

Does anyone have any tips, no-no's or the process that will create a flame edge / polished edge on acrylic? I've read up on it alittle - just would like some information from someone with experience doing this. I'm having trouble filling an order, I've talked to a local plastics supplier...

In my eyes - those small jobs lead to big projects. Small jobs build business relationships create trust and hopefully lead to a return client. I always try to conduct the first meeting at my location and drill them with questions. If I need to make the trip - I charge accordingly for travel and...

I'll make the change....thanks for catching. I have alot of the changes/additions that to make to the site before the move.
