  1. Well, they agree.. checks for everyone

    Large companies are not any more inherently evil or altruistic than small business, just potentially more impactful on our lives because of their size. As a group, small business provides almost half the non-government jobs in the U.S. Guess who provides the other half? Wouldn't we want...
  2. Digital Print numbers for personal aircraft?

    Found several older threads on this regarding wraps of commercial aircraft (a whole different ballgame) , and cut vinyl for smaller aircraft, but not much on digital print. Customer has personal aircraft wanting digital print numbers. Anyone here have experience with this? Does it require...
  3. Shop Layout

    Wish I had room for that 24' table. I like the idea of extension or multiple tables that can be butted together in a pinch.
  4. Second Surface Mounted Printing

    We were making some acrylic table tents and needed a cast product to conform to the bend. Did as Myron suggested, but didn't want to buy a roll of cast clear for this, so we reverse printed on Arlon cast laminate and laminated Oracal cast white vinyl to face of printed laminate. Wet applied...
  5. Shop Layout

    Not a lam table, but here's a 5'X9' table that we built back in the day, always worked well in our small shop. Thanks for a topic with some normalcy. Getting ready to move everything off the floor (all except media rack on wheels) and give the floor a good clean/polish.

  7. HP L26500 head strikes only on IJ35 vinyl

    We dumped 35 (c) when 3M started producing it in Brazil last year. Jams, inconsistent white point, and different backer. Took a great product and ruined it. Now using Grimco Briteline duration X and General Formulation 201/203 which I believe is who makes the Briteline.
  8. Are some of you pissed?

    Tex, maybe you're getting cabin fever. I don't begrudge anyone whose circumstances are better than mine, and I hope they view it the same. Here in SE MO we have zero cases within a 75 mi radius so our timetable is behind the more affected areas, so why not be able to use the time to prepare...
  9. Really getting bored now

    Still working here, but if it comes to forced time off my two recreational passions are cycling and driving my modified Miata rather quickly on the back roads. With gas under $2 and the springtime roads empty, this will definitely be a silver lining to this dark cloud.
  10. Business good or bad - how will you handle the new Paid Leave law?

    Just got off the NFIB (National Federation of Independent Business) webinar explaining the new law. Here is the slide set with particulars starting on slide 9. Worth a look. If you do not belong to NFIB you should consider. They represent small business and are very effective lobbying for...
  11. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    You two should team up in a comedy act. Now a good time; the eight people who show up out of curiosity would be considered a packed house by law.
  12. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Always 5:00 somewhere
  13. Sudden 560 Issue

    Correct - the foam wiper roller can presumably be used to remove plasticizers, but I don't think its real effective so ours is collecting dust.
  14. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Leave it to Johnny Best and GAC05 to end the day on with their peculiar (but appreciated) brand of humor.
  15. Sudden 560 Issue

    I've experienced something similar on our 560 when starting with a cold roll in the morning. Seems to go away a couple of feet into the print. We lower heat in shop at night so suspect that might be the issue until roll comes to room temp.
  16. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    I can't speak for Gino, but my guess he was rubbing in the My wife of 43 years has heart issues and likes to say 'I'm thankful because I know there are others who have problems like mine look small'. You are to be commended for your dedication to your daughter; this virus is a double dose...
  17. Should frosted vinyl be installed on the interior or exterior side of windows on storefronts?

    Just personal taste, but opposite side of the viewpoint you want the most impact would be my preference. The glass adds depth when etch is placed on opposite side from view.
  18. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    No thanks. Impossible to even have a conversation with someone so blinded by their political agenda (that goes for you and certain people on the other side too) that they cannot even get a few posts into any sign related thread before spewing their political opinions and frequently hatred with...
  19. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Actually I DID take the time to read your posts. Whether intentional or not, you got sucked into the political discussion by another comment regarding the naming of the virus to make your own (and I'm quoting) 'petty' political point. You're free to do that, but my point was how these threads...
  20. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Something else to blame on Trump. This post started with a distraught sign shop owner looking for support and as usual has devolved into a political discussion from the usual suspects. Imagine it's 1942 and we were in the foxholes trying to defeat the Nazis. You guys would be b******g about...
