  4. need a RELIABLE and inexpensive outsource asset

    I'm looking for a reliable and inexpensive company to outsource small print jobs. I have had some headaches recently with the printer I've been using. I get slow response/no response which has cost me more than one job so it's time to dump that outsource asset and find a reliable one. I have...

  8. Sign company put road sign in front of my shop !

    I'm no lawyer but signs are personal property. Not sure about other locations but around here, bandit signs are technically "abandoned property". Once the sign owner places the sign and leaves they have intentionally abandoned the sign. "As a general matter, if a property owner...

  10. Buying scrap from competing shops. Is this ok?

    I have dealt with several local shops for things like this. In my experience, it helps if you offer something in return. For example I stopped in a local shop to get a scrap of vinyl and started the conversation by asking about digital printing. I don't have a printer at the moment, so I...

  14. Wraps are dead...

    WOW I completely forgot about Hypercolor! I had one of those shirts. Ahhh.....the good ole days! When I was a kid I even had a GI Joe who's skin color changed depending on warm or cold temperature.
  15. Wraps are dead...

    The technology DOES exist for this(Nissan is exploring and developing it currently) but it isn't practical and would not work on bumpers, mirror shrouds ext that are made of fiberglass and plastic. Let me know when Oracal or 3M offers color changing vinyl - then perhaps I won't need a printer...
  16. Why is Oracal white vinyl so hard to weed?

    I cut several of a customer's logo into small 4"x6" promo decals (Pain in the a$$ because of all the fine line detail) and the Oracal 651 WHITE just doesn't want to weed at all. The only thing that is weedable with white is the sombrero. Same decal, same size, same pressure, same speed etc in...
  17. My design used by Nickelodeon?

    No, my post is not fueled by greed. Merely a curiosity of how this type of scenario should be managed. I've never experienced this type of situation and was merely soliciting opinions and discussion. Believe me when I say I don't do this for the money, I do this because I enjoy it. If I did...
  18. GOT DUPED, almost screwed, NEED HELP IN MPLS

    Honestly, I would probably still be doing it. Just instead of a laptop and vinyl cutter I would have an overhead projector and some paint, brushes and maybe an airbrush kit. I don't do this for the money... I do it because I love making signs and designing. But then again, I don't think...

    A sunset business? Are you looking to sell sunsets? or have you found a way to manufacture them? Because it might be hard to sell one when we can experience one for free every 24 hours or so. I think I can help..... See below: Or you can update your post with a bit more of what you are...
