  1. Printed banner pricing..and another ?..

    Ours are the same price, but why do people charge more for printed? Well our vinyl cutter was $2K and our printer $18K, you do the math. That said I *hate* doing cut vinyl anything anymore. :O)
  2. Cheeep banner material

    Thanks for the ideas guy. Typically the same on quality of displays, but these will only be seen by cars going 45mph from 100 feet away for a week each, so not concerned about using our best material.
  3. Cheeep banner material

    Hey dudes, What brand do you guys use for very short term banners, in particular a material that prints at least OK on the 1304? I need to start running an ad campaign for our shop using banners and I don't want to use the good Zeelon material we use for customers since our banners won't be...
  4. Looking for Sno Cone related clipart to buy

    Having a hard time finding anything decent. Anyone got an ideas where to look?
  5. Rear window Perf install tips

    After racking my brain figuring a good way to slit the backing without nicking the vinyl, I'll bet a vinyl cutter blade assy would work great since you could micro-adjust the cut depth. Genuine Graphtecs are *way* to high to do that with, but looks like FleaBay has knockoffs that would work...
  6. Rear window Perf install tips

    What you fellas are saying is what I was thinking. I guess I just need to practice slitting the backer some more. I'm always afraid I'll go to deep and slit the perf as well. Thanks.
  7. Rear window Perf install tips

    Been struggling installing rear window perf by myself. You guys got any tips you can offer? When installing alone do you normally center hinge?
  8. Too cheap for a take-up reel

    Ha, you are correct sir, they *should* be a couple hundred, but alas, we are in the sign business so they are 8X that much. Ours was included in the Fellers package. A must have in my opinion, yet, should cost $299. Of course the Mutoh one has a nice anodized aluminum tension roller that...
  9. Recommendations for quality 18" plastic letter vendor

    Sorry fellas, I did a poor job of explaining. I was leaving the shop and thus was in a bit of a rush. These type of formed plastic letters are what I was talking about. http://www.signletters.com/Plastic/formed_letters.shtml The customer currently has 30 year old wooden letters that have...
  10. Recommendations for quality 18" plastic letter vendor

    I have a Gemini catalog. What others do you use / recommend?
  11. Who would you recommend for automatic file backups?

    You will want a multi-pronged strategy. For local, automatic backups use Second Copy ($30) and an additional HD in your box ($60). You would also want to have at least a couple external drives ($99) to which you could backup to and remove from the premises, rotating the backups. You would...

    Looking to buy this in vector. Anyone know this image?
  15. How much money do people make in this business?

    How much do people make.... The universal answer is probably "never enough" Me, I own businesses because I find it challenging and interesting. I could certainly make more by going back to corporate life, BUT, the way it is I answer to no one, do what I want when I want and really enjoy my...
  16. Mutoh 1304 Uni-directional, why?

    As a general rule, what benefits does printing Uni-directional offer except to slow the printing process way down?? I am printing a 2'x3' poster that is taking well into an hour to print.
  17. Profile for Oracal 3641 on 1304/Wasatch?

    Any of you fellas print Oracal 3641 on your Mutoh? I can't seem to find a profile for the 1304/Wasatch combo at Oracal. It is like they purposely skipped that one. Assuming another profile will work OK, just don't want to order and have a couple of 150' rolls that I can't print to properly.
  18. Wanna see how your WF printer works, check it

    http://www.nvidia.com/content/nvision2008/art_science/index.html The last 1/2 of the video is best. Also slo-mo at the end. Nice.
  19. Now that's a big box of swabs

    So I went off the deep end and bought a case of 1,000 of the TechSpray 2306 Swabs used to clean my printer. Seemed like a good deal, however, if I use 2 a week they will last me 10 years. I guess I overbought a little..... Anyone interested in splitting the box? If so, please PM.
  20. What is that tune my Mutoh is humming?

    My 1304 makes the same, exact sound. Has since it was new.
