We have a fletcher and a keen. They are both good choices but have slight differences. The keen hold down is more solid for acm and aluminum. The Fletcher is much faster for cutting down coroplast and cardboard. A panel saw would be a much better choice for 6mm ACM and heavier aluminum.

For color work we've used Mike Adams at Correct Color out of Austin for about 10 years. He's profiled all of our flatbeds and roll stock printers. I highly recommend him. http://correctcolor.org/

We have customers waiting to drive them away as soon as we finish. In Houston, TX we don't have the extreme cold weather so maybe the question never came up.

We had finish problems with our last Gemini order too. It's so out of character, I wonder if they are having staffing issues like a lot of other companies.

We punch the vacuum holes out with a pushpin every so often to clear any dried ink.

My first inclination is wrap it since it would be the lightest application. As an alternative, since it’s a tilt up door and not a roll-up, you could use a banner with industrial Velcro. It goes on a lot faster than either a wrap or panels and be much less expensive to change graphics every few...

We also use Caldera with our TruFire.

Digitech makes a solid printer. We are very happy with ours. They run flawlessly 8-10 hours a day and ink costs are excellent.

When I first got in the business there were 3 Sign painters on staff. It seemed like magic watching them take a sketch and hand paint a sign. There are still a few around here mostly doing temporary graphics on retail windows during the Holidays.

Houston is a great city for sign companies. Good luck, let me know if I can help.

A friend of mine got almost exactly the same request 2 years ago. Definitely suspicious.

Put it on Craigslist as siding for a deer blind

Has anyone heard why both FEDEX and UPS websites are down this morning?
