  1. Graphtec FC7000 Speed up manual feed of media?

    If my media is set up and i use the arrow pad to feed out my media, is there anyway to speed that up? I'ts crawling right now and feeding out a few feet first takes a LONG time.
  2. What the client wants VS what I designed.

    Fred, Yeah, I know on all counts. Color choices were not mine...I would go with a more basic orange...this reminds me too much of classic Federal Express. Outlines were left to appease the client, I would prefer clean. The stripe I admit was my doing, it just needed something to tie it...
  3. What the client wants VS what I designed.

    I posted my on spec redeux of a clients logo late last night. I also sent him the vehicle graphic layout below. The bottom is what I came up with, drawing on his initial color scheme but using the reworked logo in an effort to brand him better. The top is what the client actually wants. He...
  4. Better than before?

    Did I post too late last night? Consider this a bump for the day crew then. ;)
  5. Better than before?

    An unsolicited tweak to a clients logo. Trying to convince him to spruce it up BEFORE he puts graphics on his truck.
  6. Today I sold out my design morals for a hunk of cash.

    Pics, or it didn't happen.
  7. Nix color sensor - currently useless....sigh.

    Wait, are you saying your desktop version will show PMS matches? Mine only shows hex code....can't figure out if there is a way to display anything else.
  8. Nix color sensor - currently useless....sigh.

    They do not have the Android app ready yet....and no clue what the Android OS compatibility issue will be if any.
  9. Nix color sensor - currently useless....sigh.

    We pledged on the kick-starter for this nifty little device back in the middle of October 2013. They were supposed to originally be ready back in February but ran into delays...well, we finally got ours today. Unfortunately we have no way to use it. You NEED an iPhone 4s, and we only have a...
  10. Graphtec cutting pro FC7000MK2-75 cutting out Flinstone letters

    I get this when opening some PDFs in Flexi. Specifically if you save or proof to a PDF in Flexi, it like to squiggle up the vectors...when you reopen it to cut it's all jiggety...and you tend to not notice it until you go to cut on your plotter. The only other time I had this issue was with a...
  11. Project bids and disclosure

    Not so much about price. More about wanting to make sure it was an apples to apples comparison and the cheaper guy was using quality materials. Small town, you know how these things go. ;)
  12. Project bids and disclosure

    I could care less about the lost bid...it's more about transparency and the principle.
  13. Project bids and disclosure

    Please someone correct me if I am wrong. I was under the impression that when bidding on a job, and after the bid was awarded, you have a right to see all of the bids that were submitted...for you know, transparency. I have never had anyone refuse this information to me until today, so I am...
  14. How do you pull TWO control points off a node?

    Trying to tweak a custom shape and I cannot seem to generate a second control point off the node so I can round a point in both directions. Anyone?
  15. Just a small custom column with signage

    The developer actually has another property in the area. We HAD to copy that typeface etc...from the existing property which suffers the same design weaknesses. Bsically forced to use Futura and Avant Garde together too.
  16. Just a small custom column with signage

    I didn't design it, I just built it. For the record, I am not a fan of the bird.
  17. Just a small custom column with signage

    Yes, it's about a 1" thick concrete casting with wire lath in the center for support. We CNC routed a reverese image, built a mold box and poured our concrete mix in. It was then bonded to the sub frame during the scratch coat Thanks! I had fun doing it...basically a base coat of our...
  18. Just a small custom column with signage

    Steel and wire lath form, custom sculpted concrete, and painted for a faux stone finish. Stands about 5' tall and weighs about 450-500 lbs. We built it in the shop and transported it on site for installation.
  19. Some type of Grotesque?

  20. Help with a script font.

    AH, it's an alt....that's why I couldn't find it. Come to think of it, how do you access alternates in Flexi?
