Does any vendor out there sell this stuff by the foot? I have no need for 20 feet of this just to accent a single sign for a single customer. I'd appreciate any pointers someone might have! /brian

Anyone seen thise one before?

Personally I think all the good brands of laser produce a very similar product, and pretty much all of them have the same causes for subpar product. Poor maintenance. Regardless of what brand you get, just like making a sign, cheap product and poor care for the equipment means garbage...

Want job control, simple.. most of us use flexi.. so use flexi's production manager with your epilog and bam you have job control and it's not with the laser engraver's proprietary software. You can also permanently store jobs in the flash of the laser in some models so there's two ways. To...

I own two epilogs, both very solid. servo's are more accurate and more rugged, but look closer at the epilog's tracking and the lenses that are standard etc.

Can't cut lexan on a laser.. can you do plexi instead?

Anyone local to the orlando area (preferably closer to Clermont) in florida that could help me out with some print work while my printer is down??

I'm in need of some help with the tuning of the print head after I replaced it.. anyone have any advice? I have the service manual but damn it's cryptic as all getout. The manual had me tear down, replace the head and then put it all back together which I did.. then I washed and loaded ink...

I have flexi 8 master and tend to use it only for the rip/cut work and i virtually never use it for actual design.. It's just too buggy/unpredictable for me so I use illustrator for most of my actual design work. From illustrator I can pretty much export to anything. Flexi for print and...

You're in the sign business... essentially, you're telling the world you can design THEIR identity for them for a living. Your design skills must be up to the task or you must hire someone to take on that task or you end up looking like every other flea market sign guy in the country. Perhaps...

Techman made the most important point of all.. Loads of things are 'manufactured' in china but designed elsewhere. The chinese can build anything but the can't design for crap. They are copycats at best.

I have a shopbot and honestly, i've come across nothing it can't do for the 15k it cost me for the 48x96 table with a 3 horse spindle, vacuum etc. It cuts signfoam, plywoods etc like butter. I can't haul ass with it like you can with the more expensive brands, but i'm also not a CNC company..

Hard to even compare them when flame actually did his from scratch in 7 minutes while bob recycled an old design that who knows how long it took him to do. Bob cheated and he's the guy that set the rules :)

I have a project that has to come reasonably close to hitting Pantone Process Orange on my printer, problem is I can't seem to get in the ballpark. There are 7 spot colors on this artwork i've hit 6 but simply can't get this orange right.. anyone had to do this type of vivid color before with...

if your plotter is a true graphtec and not a sign warehouse rebranded one there's a firmware fix for this issue.

Just wow. Why don't people think just for a little tiny bit for themselves? What on earth makes one think that buying a used god knows how old piece of equipment entitles them to a warranty and service from the original manufacturer? if you want that kind of service buy it new, if you need...

Never in a million years would I do a professional quality design in Flexi.. NEVER. It's a decent too to rip/print/cut my completed art but to design in that pig? no way. I'll stick with CS3 thanks :)

for this you really do need to read your flexi manual so you understand just how to create a contour line and how to select it.

that site is a custom jersey designer, who's to say that this person asking for stuff isn't starting a team that this site designed the jersey for and like many folks here, won't let the vector art go?

Not sure where 'rendering intent' is found in Flexi 8.. Files are cmyk, I always work in that so not sure how it would change, but I checked and it's still that. Previously, I just would re-run the job in the production manager and print this file when I needed to. When I tried it today, I...
