IF IT WERE ME. I would pull the platen & duplicate the piece out of aluminum. No problem THEN with magnetic substrates

Other than changing belts. It has run for 31 years

I still have a smc4 (model before the 4b). I still use it once in a while

you said it: "they break so easy" i. would be skeptical that the 3d printer part would hold up well buy a couple online and keep a pair of spares onthe shelf

Very handy to receive texts at the number "in the yellow pages"

Landlines can get mms & sms. Get "text box" and everyone can text to your landline

My sc545-ex is 20 years old, heavily used & I have never needed to clean grit rollers my Gerber stuff needs to cleaned regularly there must be a difference in the mix of what we print

i have to admit, i probably haven't tucked in my shirt in quite a while i guess that is what made "untuckit" shirts popular

the sabre is a great machine. it'll be running in another 13 years, with a little patience

until the 1980's LOW VOLTAGE ELECTROLYTICS lasted almost forever, it seemed. then the japanese learned how to make them cheaper if you were servicing consumer electronics, you did almost nothing other than changing caps and reaching for the ESR meter the way the caps were rated changed. smaller...

i didn't say they make it. i just suspect they tweak the formulation always imagining they know better than anyone else A DISEASE I HAVE LONG BEEN INFECTED WITH

I just recommended yesterday that a gerber edge user go to Ebay and purchase an ESR meter that tests for the normal failure mode for electrolytics. $55 & you can text all your caps in circuit. unplug & wait 15 minutes before you start texting. Of course

I will, say, though, the 1980’s/1990’s vintage electronics that Gerber used are resiliant as hell. Much like my Gerber plotters & Edge’s the biggest problems besides caps is poor connections at plug ins. They held up much better to surges than most other equipment

Either way, you have the choice of using a hardware “voip phone” (a phone that sits on a desk) an app on your personal phone, or a “Jabari headset” connected to a computer. You can login and out of all 3 depending on your needs

Several options AT&T can still provide an iPhone with a standard sim & an esim the virtual sim gives you a “second line” that can only ring during business hours you can use voip (ring central, Microsoft teams, etc) which allows multiple people to “hand off” the phone number depending on who is...

Very possibly. as electrolytics fail you get ‘noise’ on what should be nice clean dc voltage. it plays hell with every circuit, but, some more than others. REMEMBER. POWER OFF, unplug powe & wait ten minutes protects delicate electronics & with larger caps, protects YOU from a nasty shock

First thing we do when we acquire a piece of used equipment, whose chemistry I am unfamiliar with, is request the "epa" sheet. I forget the terminology. This gives you a fairly good idea what the solvents are. Although not necessarily all the buffering agents. After the "cleaner" dissolves some...

I am never quite sure of the subtle differences between Roland inks, Mutoh inks & mimaki

IF THE SOLVENTS ARE COMPATABLE, you can. the friend i bought my sc545-ex from laughed at me when i asked him what kind of ink tonrun "whatever s**t is the cheapest" if you take an eye dropper full of the new ink & put it in the old ink & it doesn't coagulate, they could well be compatable. at...

that would be vastly better than the $26 one, but, either will work
