  1. Laminator?????????????????

    Look at LEDCO U.S. made 2 year warrantee. Support for all equipment ever made in the last 40 + years. This thing last and last. And if you need a part you can talk to someone in New York not China.
  2. Political signs...

    It all depends on your point of view. A politician saving money, finding the lowest bidder. I hope he continues it in office. But then again, when he is in office he will not be spending his own money. Is asking you to bid, knowing you will not be competitive, and then going with the lowest...
  3. Best Laminator Choice...for ME!

    Take a look at Ledco @ www.ledcoinc.com 2 year warrantee US made. Have one that is 30 years old and the only repairs are what we broke.
  4. Sigh... employee cut into the bottom roller...

    Sticky Signs Exploding roller?! I've been in this industry for over 30 years and never heard of the exploding roller. What kind of machine was it? All silicon rollers are suppose to be glued to the steal core not to do so would be silly, and frankly with any load on it will probably fall...
  5. Sigh... employee cut into the bottom roller...

    One last, hopefully helpful tip. When we get a wrap we first back out as much as we can with the reverse switch on the laminator. Then we use a hem cutter, I'm not sure if it called that, but it is used to cut the stitching when sewing. It looks like a small mettle serpents tongue with one...
  6. Sigh... employee cut into the bottom roller...

    We have used GE silicon caulk as a bandage. For pre-masking it will probably work at least for the short term, for laminates you may have a problem. If you sled it through however the cut on the bottom will not matter. Now you are down to one good roll, on top with no replacement so if you...
  7. 24" paper cutter needed (rotary or guillotine)

  8. Parking Signs

    Edna I'd give Jerry Springer a call they need new signs.
  9. Lettering for trucks and cars

    Edna, Stop talking! Listen to what has been told to you. Do not demean those that would help you. Show you are paying attention and show growth. You walked into the Shaolin Temple and yelled "If all you old Chinese farts can due this stupid Kung Fu it cannot be to difficult, not like...
  10. Lettering for trucks and cars

    Edna, Edna, Step back and take a deep breath, now go back through this chain. You got a lot of help, some of it a little snarky, but help none the less. First "It's not rocket science". Look at that statement. You demeaned the entire chosen occupation of those you are asking to help you...
  11. local sign shops want me to wrap vehicles

    We do work for our competition all the time, and have a good relationship with them, for the most part. The way I see it I'm selling a service who I sell it to dose not mater. And if I keep saying no if I need something someday I am out of luck. Your competition may say "oh well we cannot do...
  12. edge laminator

    How wide do you want/need? How fast? What is your volume/ throughput per day? How much?
  13. Ledco Econocraft Laminator Problem

    Do you have the serial #? If you call LEDCO they can pull the card on it and tell you all about it. 585-367-2392. They support all the equipment they have ever made.
  14. Anyone know how much these go for?

    Do you have the serial #? If you call LEDCO they can pull the card on it and tell you all about it. 585-367-2392. They support all the equipment they have ever made so if you want to fix it up before selling it you can. They may know someone who looking for a used one so let them know your...
  15. Calibration Decals/Labels

    My $0.02 worth is you will probably not find a film with the release liner custom cut scored for your job. But if you want to try it this is how I would. 1. setup the laminate as you normally would on top, rewinding the liner. 2. feed the used liner with the silicone towards the PS...
  16. Calibration Decals/Labels

    What type of laminator do you have? How many un-winds are on it? If you have three it may be doable.
  17. Problem with Drytac 55" Laminator

    Ok I'm more familiar with LEDCO laminators but this system should have some common type of parts. 1. How is the rewind driven, probably off the main motor drive by chain. IS the chain jumping off the sprocket? 2. The sprocket should be turning at a higher RPM than the unit is running at and...
  18. wrinkling in laminated perf

    This is tunneling. Rolling it face out will help, but you may get tunneling between the back liner and the print. If you do not as big a deal.
  19. GBC Lam Parts

    You may want to order two. I think the unit is made in Korea and by GMP and there is some question if GBC will be selling GMP equipment much longer and after that if they, GBC, will continue to stock parts for them. With the delay it sound to me your are waiting for the boat to come in from Korea.
