Ultrasonic cleaning baths are supposed to work a treat on blocked print heads. I once ended up being given a gross of "special" ultrasonic print head cleaning machines from one of my suppliers... they were nowt special, just a cheap ultrasonic bath like you find in Argos. If you've just about...

It's a combination of bankers looking for something to replace all that "mortgage backed" stuff they used to do and Mr Bernanke. Traders don't make a fortune from speculating with property anymore... now they make a load of money betting on the price of Coffee, Coca, Tin, Lead and anything else...

Large corporations have forgotten the wisdom of Henry Ford... if you want to sell your chit to the US consumer you need to make sure the US consumer is given the means to earn a decent living. 3m have obviously run the numbers in the usual myopic fashion favoured by corporates... destroying the...

Scotchprint only works if you worship at the alter of 3m..... if you don't then it looks pretty silly.... a vinyl company cheekily awarding themselves a home made quality standard which isn't subjected to the same independent rigour as something like the TUV mark or Kite symbol..... Scotchprint...

Oracle, Hexis, Ritrama. KMPF, Neschen. Graffityp.... Take your pick... all quality European brands... all capable of supplying you with the kind of materials you need to earn a profitable living. In Europe 3M vinyl is NOWHERE... barely on the radar... don't know anyone who uses it, in fact...

Would you allow the kind of moron who buys this kind of $hit anywhere near your teeth... I sure as hell wouldn't.

You hate an 85 year old lady who has served her country since the 1950's, a lady who has personally met every US president since Eisenhower.... a grandmother who has seen her own grandchildren fight in American wars... unlike those turds Bush & Blair who did not have the moral conviction to...

I'm just not seeing the "beauty" either.... to me it's a crudely nailed together piece of cr@p held onto the wall with a amateurish arrangement of wires & angle iron.

Buy a roll of self adhesive exhibition felt..... it's cheap as chips and lasts years.... I bought a smart Black roll about 8 years ago and it's still giving me "disposable microfibre" edges to all my standard Grey hexis squeegees. If you REALLY want a magnetic squeegee just stuff a small piece...

But can Gerber retreat to the vinyl cutter & router markets and still make money? Personally I doubt it. Average equipment at above average prices is never a recipe for success.

They asked you to make a sign in America...... so what if Jewlery has two L's in Britain? We don't used American words like TIRES or COLOR because this isn't America. American spelling looks great in AMERICA.... in Britain it makes the sign maker look stupid... it's as if you can't spell at...

What file extension are you using for your plotter files? If you're using DXF's then choppy lines & stepped corners are par for the course.

Air powered nail guns aren't expensive... Spotnail make a nice narrow head gun which costs around £80.. it'll fit right down into your channel with ease and allow you to machine gun really tight staples right around all four sides of your flex face. What you need to do is leave your new face...

The face material is a woven flex face fabric which I wouldn't even bother trying to strip... it'll take forever to remove the graphics and it's easy to nick the material which will then cause it to split. Many Flex face fabrics are finished in a similar way to banners.... with welded pockets on...

Dibond & Reynobond are both premium European manufactured products. Alupanel isn't..... If you want to use a generic Chinese manufactured composite there are many better choices.

This might sound a stupid question but why aren't you using Dibond? 8x4ft is a standard sheet size. White, Green, Yellow & Red are all standard colours, no painting no farting about. Colour warranty on Dibond is 5 years exterior life at a minimum. If you must use aluminium I wouldn't think...

Many newbies unintentionally project an ignorant, childish image. Many of the questions asked indicate that the poster has expended virtually no time or effort solving their own problem... why bother when I can demand an instant answer from someone online? If you can't be @rsed to expend a...

Why are you wasting your time with $10 a day banner rentals then? If you are an Ace fabricator and Neon expert you should have far more important, more profitable things to be doing with your time. If you are busy earning decent profits from "proper" projects these banner rentals would cost you...

I wish we'd bought our forklift truck a lot sooner.... we used to handball all our sheet materials off delivery trucks and drag them to the machines.. now we just lift the pallet, drive to the machine, set the forks to the bed height and simply slide off one at a time. There are stacks of cheap...
