Here a is a floor from the project in question. Simple stuff but it takes too much time. And you know how it goes... The phone is ringing. Someone walks in to talk about some stickers for the wind shield of their honda civic, etc. Although its great work, it tends to clog the pipeline.

Not that I have been to an sort of "expert level evacuation map class" But I have never seem a map that is to scale. It would really not make sense to be at scale any way for most projects. Think about it. An average building with all the details would end up being so small that they would be...

Hi All. So I have been doing a lot of evacuation maps lately for our property management clients. I have been getting it done few different ways: Take photos on existing maps, trace, reproduce. Take architects drawings, trace, reproduce. Walk the property, take notes and photos, draw...

Mee too I have always wanted to do this kind of rendering. But 99.965% of the time I can't seem to justify the extra time is takes. Especially when I need to keep the printer and plotter running and the phone is ringing and details are flying around the shop. I guess I'm doing too much. But...

Your best best (even though it will take longer) is to set up and cut the pvc. then set up and cut the aluminum. Meaning two separate processes. Then glue the parts together after. Also if the aluminum is on the bottom, why are you going all the way through? Just decrease the depth on the hole...

Having a real hard time spotting this one. Thanks in advance for your help!

You know that uneasy weird feeling you get, in the pit of your gut, and you feel funny at the knees. When your toes kind of ache from gripping the inside of your boots. When you are well past your comfortable height? When the next breeze, will remove all of motor skills except the one that...

^^ What he said. No slight against you. But ever think not knowing how to "make it work" would imply that you don't know how to "ask for help". Just saying... All the vendors listed by others are great. +1 for Grimco.

So by this you mean increase passes that same way you would for say a backlit print on translucent media? If not, can you explain this one?

Look on eBay and find an old IBM Thinkpad. Small, light, built like tanks and powerful enough to run x4. You can find them on eBay for less than 100. Some even lower than that. I have one new in 07'. Added some memory and a new battery and it runs like a champ (albeit with XP). Check on ebay

This time... I have to agree with you. I have won so many gigs just doing this. I ask clients about their experience with the process and why they chose me over another shop. 85% of the time the response is, "...you showed up. The other guy wouldn't ". And it usually followed with reasons like...

Good for you! That's cool. Glad they got it all together for you. Maybe they did act in a timely manner, maybe not. Maybe everyone thought it should have jumped off sooner because we all know the pressure of dropping out big bucks and expecting the tool to work right, out of the box and having...

I thought the same thing but there is an "S" in the background that is backwards now. Now sure if the "S" was intentional.

Easy way out: Spend 7.5 min (15 is too long) to vectorize and clean up the logo. Complete order. Next project. Just don't claim the baby. And don't put it in your portfolio. The Road less traveled: Spend 15 mins to create something you feel is better than the customer supplied art. If they are...

Still having issues!?! I am really (really, really) surprised this issue is still ongoing. I can't understand why Roland has not solved this already. I would think it costs Roland next to nothing to go scoop up the machine (especially since it is local) and drop off another and send an...

The Rock For some reason I'm really fascinated by the rock sign. This is the type of project I would love to tackle. But no one EVER has asked for this type of thing. How did you come to the decision to use the rock? Your concept? Or customer request? Where did the rock come from? Was it a...

Before RGB, Before CMYK, Before Pantone... There was this: Over 300 Years Ago, An Artist Created And Documented Every Color You Can Think Of...

I see your trying to solve the issue by building that art with vectors, but I will throw this out there anyway. If your having trouble with that weird transition color, try creating the gradient another way. Instead of going directly from say red to black as a gradient color on a single object...

I assume you are using VersaWorks, right? Double check the "printer controls" tab. Look at the "general" section. Make sure that "Cut sheet after Output" is not checked. That is the only thing I can think of besides, maybe your mogwai have gotten wet some how? Or you have a ghost in your...

Great work! How mush time from pic to robotic portrait? Please tell me you screen recorder was running in the background when you did this, so we can see the work in real time. Awesome stuff.
