  1. VENT - Things that annoy you in the print industry.

    Agree 100% with these specific ones, expecially the first one, I have a 2 day turn around order still waiting for pickup a month later. Thanks real estate ladies, your couple of riders were sooo important.
  2. Wrap Scam

    How can the police there say "no crime was fully commited" because you didn't follow through with being fleeced? Would they say the same thing to someone who was carrying counterfeit bills? Even if they had not spent them there is clearly intent as countrrfeiting is a crime all by itself, as...
  3. Who Else Has Horror Story

    I haven't used Fellers in almost 2 years. Never had any real issues with them sending me wrong products or anything, just that I always got better pricing from NEPCO in NJ and they are always a next day ship for items they have in stock. The one thing that really rubbed me wrong was when I...

    Like GaSouthpaw above, I also have a pre-set ballpark for starting these estimates, but it is originally based on a rough SQFT estimate for typical vehicles. That said, my SQFT price I start with when I am adding/subtracting from this ballpark is $12 per SQFT. I would never go as low as $2...
  5. WannaCry ransomware

    I've been hoping to switch my shop ovee 100% Linux after having to deal with a very shitty (ongoing win10 experience). I've made the switch at home and am happy enough, even more than 50% of my steam games at home run under linux. I have dual boot win7/ubuntu at work, but because I don't have...

  9. Anyone Use Vinyl On Your (physical) Desktop For Organization?

    Desk Wrap by mjkjr posted Apr 18, 2017 at 11:04 AM I finally had some time to do this project, and it came out pretty neat! I had _just_ enough 12mil laminate left on the scrape roll I had kicking around (actually ran out about 6 inches short in one of the corners that ended up under the...

  12. Anyone Use Vinyl On Your (physical) Desktop For Organization?

    RJPW, awesome! I like how colorful that desktop is! I didn't even consider the super-thick laminate, I have some extra 12 mil GF-concept "armor" lam that I might use on this project!
  13. Anyone Use Vinyl On Your (physical) Desktop For Organization?

    Hi Guys, I was thinking about wrapping the top of my office desk as the original surface is old and getting a bit ratty. At first, I was thinking I might use some of the wooden looking architectural film to give it a classy type of look, but now I started wondering if I could use vinyl to...
  14. Competing With Online Giants Like Vista Print & Custom Ink

    I don't think about them too much. I do both small format printing and screen printing on apparel (among other things), and I have gotten a few customers after they had used one of the online places you mentioned and experienced their low quality and inconsistent results. In my experience...
  15. Changeable Dates on Mesh Banner?

    Hi Pat, Do you think it wouldn't be too hard to line the mesh up like that? I'm gonna keep this option in mind as well, thanks!
  16. Changeable Dates on Mesh Banner?

    Hi Guys, Thanks for the tip! I haven't done vinyl over mesh before, so I just assumed it would probably fall off with the wind. I'll have to give that a try now!
  17. Changeable Dates on Mesh Banner?

    Just sent them a quote for 5 SMOOTH vinyl banners and offered them free date changes as long as they stored the banners with me (billed at $3/banner=$15 Quarterly=$60 per year). Planning on using cheap calendered vinyl to digital print patches for the date changes. Easy. We'll see if they go...
  18. Changeable Dates on Mesh Banner?

    Hi Gino, Yeah, I thought about it and told my contact at the town that it would be better to do 5 banners at a small discount rather than try changing 75% of the banner a few times a year. Still, will need to do the changeable date portions though, so still looking for any good ideas for doing...
  19. Changeable Dates on Mesh Banner?

    Hi Everyone, I searched around a little, but couldn't find an answer to my question. Just wondering if anybody has found a decent way to handle annual changing dates on mesh over-the-road banners? My town wants some new banners for elections, and town meetings, each of which are used a couple...
