  2. Wasatch/versaworks plotting ???

    So here is my issue/question... I am running Wasatch 6.3 to run my Roland printer and using a Cutmaster 2 plugin for adobe Illy to run my graphtec plotter. I hate cutmaster 2 and am having trouble running the plotter off of wasatch (no cutting upgrade BS). I am thinking of running a stand...
  3. contour cutting window perf

    not really
  4. Nothing exciting...some recent installs...

    Looks good Moze! What material did you use for the "Concorde"? As for the drilling on uneven stone, perhaps a jig of some kind would help keep the bit from wondering.. I'm thinking just a 5"x5" metal plate with a guide hole in the middle. You could place it, hold it flat on the tips of the...
  5. Just Ordered A Seal EL 54!

    So the 54 EL was delivered today! Oh Man!! What a well built machine. This this is a tank and you can tell that they were actually thinking with their brains when they designed this machine. The guys at Sonoma Graphics came out and helped me get it up and going. It's a solidly built unit that...

  8. Expanding print shop to include large format - need advice

  9. Booze in the shop?

    We usually start drinking at breakfast. So..... No, it's a huge liability for the owner and employees.. But it's happened on occasion.
  10. How often do you all calibrate your machines?

    Wow, I was expecting to hear that you all are doing it more frequently than that. I'll be happy not to have to do those calibrations again for another year or longer! Thanks for the responses.

    I basically interpreted this as Way Too Much Liability!
  12. How often do you all calibrate your machines?

    After a few hours with my nose in the service manual I have my roland dialed in like a hunting rifle. It got me to thinking how often should I be doing this? Obviously after a big move or physical impact but on a regular basis how often are you all calibrating your equipment? (not for color but...

  14. Why I will never buy another HP printer again. L26500 nightmare

    Sorry to hear that.. Seems uber frustrating. I have always had EXCELLENT customer service from HP on my non-commercial stuff. They've on 3 occasions gone above and beyond what was expected. It's surprising to hear that they are dropping the ball so much in your situation. If I were you...

  16. Rear Window Perf - compound curves = liquid lams??

    I've done this both ways. The liquid lam I used was clear shield. I applied it on the perf before installing it while it was still on the backing paper. I used a very thin foam roller and applied it very very lightly. In total there were about 3 coats. When I peeled it off the backing paper any...
  17. Laminator question

    Congrats, Thats great! Next time I am in bend I may get in touch with you to check out the machine in action. I went in there to get a quote one day and they told me 1600 for the lam. Then a couple weeks later I went in to buy one and they quoted me 2600. They said the first price was if I...
  18. Registration Marks Inside the Design Area

    Yep it's coming from CM2.. I'll try bringing in the artboard but it seems like I've done that the last time it happened. Anyway, I'll try again. Also, I've never even realized which layers are selected when I cut... I'll try that too. Thanks!
  19. Registration Marks Inside the Design Area

    Hey everyone. I've run into this problem a few times now and it's starting to get old. I'll layout in Illustrator CS5, use cutting master 2 to ad reg marks, print, lam, load into the graphtec FC5100-150 and try to cut.. I get an error that says "Registration marks cannot be used because they...

    11 dollars a linear foot.. They should be in the sign business with those prices. ;)
