not a fan of relying on adhesives for overhead panels. one kid whacks it and it comes down with a mighty chop i'd be framing it in some sort of cabinet, with a frame for the polycarb, that's bolted into a supporting structure. if you're uncertain about painting the polycarb, try painting a...

tell them its a minimum order of 25 rolls or you'll have to upcharge for wasted print/lam media....or tile it

i use a stomp shear, with a piece of scrap dibond at the crunch point to keep it from stomping on the finish of the panel. still, the edges get rounded a bit at the cut but it doesn't take away from the quality of a dibond sign. i still like cnc routing it better, panelsaw would be identical...

tires aren't inherently dangerous either, but we don't just simply toss em in the dumpster. agreed that red tape sucks, but I'd rather not be the guy cutting checks for fines when I get caught in the act.

I mean, if you're already buying non-OEM 792 printheads then why not trust the ink they supply as well?

huge fan of going local for this kind of thing. much easier to dropoff&pickup, than to add packing/shipping or wait for samples/proofs/etc. find someone with a UV flatbed near you and develop a working relationship, and then start buying time on their machine for days at a time.

got my head spinnin now thinkin about the kinds cool signs I could make with Tritium scraps encapsulated in resin. I'm already living under a 5g tower, so what else could go wrong?

id imagine every region has someone that deals with hazardous waste disposal. Just get a quote from your local ADCO and add it to your exit sign replacement quote.

Mfg. website 3D viewer and/or 3D model websites have some clean images.

my multicam 3000's have been running beautifully for 20years. only had a tech onsite twice, which could have been avoided if I had gotten up to speed with my DIY ability to diagnose/repair, but that was nearly 10years ago. I have now replaced a few stepper controllers and a set of four bearing...

with that gradient in the artwork it would be easier to use a printer, but black vinyl will do just fine if you can simply convert the gradient into a halftone pattern or omit it altogether.

have they considered simply stringing a cable and hanging the parking signs? ...or maybe mounting to the wall of the building?

we use vehicle wrap vinyl for most things we intend to last a long time. I'd rather put a few more bucks into materials and give the client a longer-lasting product while saving on labor over "making it work" with economy vinyl. ....but dealer's choice really, flat is flat and if it works it works.

its just a pair of metal pans made with 1" aluminum extruded angle. screw one to the building, and the face-pan that houses all the wiring caps onto it and fastens at the sides.

curious. what's your nozzle test print look like?

first line looks like +15 to me, you're no2 line might be "off the chart" but not really... just cap it at 20, or try a little higher if you really want but I don't think it would be anywhere near 30. no4 +15 no3 +9. no2 +20-24 no1 +16 this forum saved my ass back in my mimaki jv3 days, but...

if i remember correctly, that is a value that you input into the alignment procedure ...not +/- the existing value.

your options are extremely limited here to google, and just take what's available to you. however reflective paint is disappointing and lends itself to a blotchy appearance and weak reflectability. you can't just overlay reflective yellow onto the flat surface of the lettering? ...or does the...

i clean in two steps using rapidtac to "degrease""degunk" and then 60% isopropyl alcohol to make it pristine. then again, i don't flame polish, and I cnc-cut all my own acrylics, so all this crazing paranoia is unwarranted for 99.999% of my acrylic experience.

for me its gyford standoffs > mbs-standoffs > displays2go in terms of preference/quality/price. you can get dirt-cheap if you're clever with amazon searches, but I can confirm that cheapcheap options turn out to be hollow-crap with a nice finish. whichever way you go about it, i'd recommend...
