We are going to be installing a 30 inch by 30 foot decal on both sides of a truck with thankfully no rivets.
I'm wondering the best way to go about it...should I print it in 2 or 3 pieces with overlap? or could I get lucky with a center hinge or multiple hinges..
More I think about it the more...
I've seen it on other forums, whereby if someone give helpful and not hateful answers their "rep" goes up by people clicking Up or down on their posts...
this could be a better way to calculate whether someone is giving you good advice or not better than sheer number of posts.
Here's a link...
Just got a copy of their clearance sheet..(for Louisville)
Seems like an impossible to beat price on air release vinyl. We ordered some...I guess its crap cause they can't sell it but surely is good for yard signs...
air release vinyl for 9 cents a sq ft??! It can't be that bad
With forklift traffic?
Customer is complaining because last decals he bought online are coming up...
Looking through the cowboy catalog nothing seems to be that durable
It still registers as heating and even shows the temp going up but its room temperature.
What would cause this?
I looked at the fuse responsible for it and it looks fine.
I'm about to take the whole thing apart but maybe someone could save me some troubleshooting time.
I guess I'm mostly...
We have all run into problems with our equipment. The jobs keep coming, we must keep producing, and the part is at least a day away.
Either your printer or your plotter, what are your more memorable rigs?
How many coat-hangers are holding your old junker together?
Rigging is what separates...
For signmaking or otherwise...:popcorn:

Does it work with permanent adhesive left on for years?
Like on polymetal and other substrates it has an arrow that points a direction and tells you to install it that way.
Does it mean install the graphics or hang it on a building?
Why does it matter?
We just started using matte vinyl a few months back and now almost everything I print I decide would look better on matte.
Am I crazy or just hooked...maybe because matte is new to me or something, ((all) cut vinyl being glossy) but I just think it looks so much more expensive than glossy
It isn't very noticeable but, for example it will print a mostly white yard sign and in the white space there is the occasional single nozzle width drops looks like the test pattern.
Like it is spraying (or dropping) dots on the passes. Even on colors that are not being used. There will be...
On the standard model air pumps at gas stations that make you pay .50 cents for some air...there is a little recessed button on the side that turns it on.
Lady at gas station told me after I was pissed that her pump wouldn't fill up one tire on my old crap truck
Although there is nothing you...
But what about these high performance calendered vinyls such as Oracal 3551 RA(i guess thats the only one)
I remember the crack and peel thread...it really isn't worth screwing a customer...but it is right there in the featured wrap vinyls section of the cowboy magazine
We're talking a truck...
Just got an email saying that Roland owners can get a 60 day trial of "keen" an e-commerce service...anyone know of this?
Sounds like an easy way for an otherwise offline shop to get online quick and easy...
In the end it is probably better just to do it right and custom.
$99 and 3% a month...
So everything has been going fine...nothing is new
Problem is... The grommets don't make a solid connection on the reinforced corners of the banners...
we use hem tape so its like 4 banners thick, it won't cut all the way through and doesn't make a great connection to the bottom grommet...it...
Like should I use the 54in material or the 30 in for a given job based on its size, which way should I cut the board down to minimize waste?....
Some better solution than just seeing whats already loaded on the machine...
like a 2x3 better on 54 or 30 inch or someone could just tell me that it...
Ok so some of you may know I had to take and soak and flush the heads yesterday to get my magenta to print...
Now that I have reinstalled the head and started printing I have noticed that the magenta is off by 1/64'' NOT a problem at all considering I had no magenta all week, its easy enough...
The machine -Versa-Art 640
The problem -No Magenta
I give up, I've tried everything I know to do at least twice the magenta nozzle test print is a scattered maybe 25%
We swapped a magenta ink cartridge mid print (like usual when it beeps at us) and it went for a foot or two and turned...
