  1. Black Vinyl Grid - Help Please

    A few days late but I think what you are after is in the blend mode. Make two lines or shapes, then Object>Blend>Blend options and set either # of steps or distance or color etc, then once set go back into (object>make) or use the short cuts (alt-ctrl-B). Once you made your set lines you can...
  2. Hockey Sign

    You had me at Hockey. Sign looks good too.
  3. ROLAND CJ500 With FlexiSignPro weird problem

    I am using flexi and using a converted CJ500 so if you want PM me. Could use "box" to save the files to if they are too large to email. I have the Adobe bundle as well. First do you ever just use production manager on its own? I never take a file into flexi and then print from there. I always...
  4. customer wants to buy my files i designed.... how much(ballpark)?

    If you charged for graphics time or setting up the file, is that not including the concept? If you had someone on the site here design a layout and they charged by the hour, they give you the file which is their concept as well. But you pay for it. If you feel that you spent a couple...
  5. Looking for clear vinyl with black backing

    Could you not just print a black background around your contour cut and leave the waste part of the decal on the backer. Don't weed the background. May be easier than finding a black backer.
  6. Media Stoppers

    If you have a 1 3/8" hole cutter wood would be easiest. The outer cut could be rough and not matter if it's round. Outer cut could be done on a band saw or with a jig saw etc. You may be able to tapp threads in the wood or use a nut set in place (inside the walls of the ring) to thread...
  7. Can you judge my testprint please?

    This hits it on the head... Looks like your SC 545 test print and not a CJ 500 test print but using my CJ 500, I had similar issues where my black and cyan head have a couple deflecting nossles. On a solid fill test print the black shows slight banding but as jhill said, if you are not...
  8. Media Stoppers

    Bobby, do those just have friction fit or do they tighten inside the core to hold on tighter? If they tighten and actually hold 80 lbs, yes much better, and I might look at getting a set. Was that price for the set? How much to mail to Alberta? As for the collar, those can be made either...
  9. Media Stoppers

    This is what you are looking for? This one from the CJ 500 has a 1 3/8" ID. Do you have these yet?
  10. Another Observation................... not so funny

    I didn't mean you..... I meant the guy that does not see the red lights flash when driving and he would have been the one who got hit (when he was walking) as he would not have done like you did and looked...
  11. Another Observation................... not so funny

    See.... that was the guy who does not look when he crosses the street....
  12. Another Observation................... not so funny

    See the same thing up here. Once they push that button to cross they go... no matter what. And worse is when one car has stopped they don't look around that car to make sure the next lane stops. How is it that those people don't get it.... and there is a good chance in 5 min they are the...
  13. Canvas Frames?

    Keep in mind that all wood is acidic and in time may cause issues with canvas yellowing. How much time…. I am not sure, but stretcher bar is made for canvas. Now sure how a person could tell how much better it is for canvas but that might be one thing to think about when making your own...
  14. Canvas Frames?

    The biggest bonus to being able to chop and join your own stretcher bar is for the odd sizes. If your print happens to be 1/8 or 1/4 inch off and you need an exact bar, cutting your own is the only way. Cost is lower as most bar for the 7/8 thickness runs close to the $1 to $1.20 a foot...
  15. Pinch Roller problem or Lack of Flange Guide?

    Just to confirm, on the back of the CJ 60, you have two roller bars that you can set your media on? One nice thing with flanges on the media roll and using them is that when you load the media, you can get it started through the front a foot or so and then roll the media roll backward to...
  16. Converting Roland FJ 50

    Same goes for any printer. If you have it aligned correct and the heads are good, calibration feed set proper, using proper profiles and good ink, all is good. The FJ printers can print very nice as I have a FJ42 (still water based) along with a CJ500 (same print heads used) converted to...
  17. Copyrighted Artwork?

    What my art customers have said to me was that they need to be the one who took the photo when they paint a picture of it. Or the person who took the photo has to give the ok to use it. But this does not mean they can take a photo of anything and paint it like Gino's owls.
  18. Playing with a retro business card...

    I like them all but was leaning to the bottom right. By The way Moze.....love the new logo with the bubble.
  19. Any experience with CANVAS?

    They carry a lot of waterbased media as well but they are out East. They also have a textured art paper that prints well with water based inks. I have been able to order with another company in Edmonton that uses the Amplis products so I can get in on the 10 qty pricing and not need to buy...
