  1. Headed to St. Louis!

    we are expecting beautiful weather. A little on the chilly side for frozen yogurt but perfect in my eyes 65-75 If you miss working come help, we are swamped. I think I even have a cold Coors light in the fridge for pay
  2. DESPERATE HELP!!! JOb on the line! Flexi PRinting Gradients Dark

    Screen cap and print a small test print of that in a new file. That will tell you if it's the file. If it is the file I'd work on exporting it til I found a acceptable answer. I have had problems with gradients taking forever or locking up when sent. Then a tif copy gigantically larger in size...
  3. In Honor of DD 4 20

    Although I hope my 3 year old thinks the way you do you are comparing apples and oranges. Water intoxication is a real thing, it is over hydration. We had a incident a few years ago with a radio contest. There has NEVER to my knowledge been a marijuana overdose causing death. And that other...
  4. In Honor of DD 4 20

    I'd type more but I don't want to get orange cheese powder all over my keyboard from all these cheeto's and doritos
  5. Customer with nasty B.O

    When I ran a SignsNow in St. Louis we had a DJ/Limo customer who was always in wasting time. He asked to use the bathroom, was in there way too long, came out looked at his coat and smelled the bottom and went back in for about 15 minutes. Finally just came out and left. When we went to inspect...
  6. How to tell a customer i am not charging them for a job

    "The honor of being envolved in this project far outweighs any price I could charge." If he insists on paying, then tell him to donate what he thinks it is worth to him towards charity.
  7. How would you get customers if you started over?

    Great point, I would be much more open if this was posted in the premium section. You can not spend a better $50 a year. Even if it doesn't lead to a lot of NEW info it makes you feel better about the wealth of info you get for free. I would do almost exactly the same. Commercial real estate...
  8. Mutoh 1304 and a 440mL Cartridge.

    I am not sure how the cartridges are supported on the 1304 but on the 1204 they will fit and work perfectly but.... They hang very far out and are VERY susceptible to damage. If you just barely bump in to the cartridge you can damage the inside of the printer and it will no longer read any...
  9. Vinyl for stickers

    For argument sake I just dug up some 3164G laminated and cut decals. I tried to get a better pic to show the cut line but it doesn't show well. There was absolutely no shrink to it at all. These were printed then sat for 24 hours and laminated with just a cheap lam. They have been sitting around...
  10. Vinyl for stickers

    sometimes cheaper is better, cheaper vinyl is thicker in a lot of cases which works better for DECALS I would not suggest using cast, it just seems like a waste of money imo and I am not sure that would even solve your problem. It kind of seems like a case of "this aint working so lets just...
  11. how do i shape this in flexi?

    Break it down into simple triangles per section and array them around the radius of the end of the oval. (make sections, select all, go to arrange menu, then step and repeat, select far right option) It looks like basic shapes that make up the teeth. In fact you might just want to do the top and...
  12. Vinyl for stickers

    First off why is it a issue if it shrinks? Just remove the waste and no one will ever know they shrunk. Usually a little shrinkage makes it easier to weed. I have notice slight shrinkage with just about every combination of vinyl and or laminate. Usually weather plays a big roll. Liner has very...
  13. Supplier For Interior Signage

    http://engraphix.net/ perhaps? I will tell you that they are great for this sort of thing but they are hard to get one off's later that match the original. IE order a bunch and things go smooth, order one later for a new office and it's hard to get a hold of them. I think it is this way with...

  18. Graphtec FC8000 purchase? perf cut

    Thats a great feature. I had issues running my printer wirelessly but with the minimal amount of info being sent I bet it would run much smoother with a plotter. I guess it appears Summa only sells direct. I am interested in talking to a rep like I said in my pm Please have someone contact me...
  19. Graphtec FC8000 purchase? perf cut

    I have been researching the Summa cutters and I am not sure which serries would best suit my needs? There is a drastic price jump in the 3 different lines. I am thinking the S-120 and I have found very drastic pricing online I do not have (that I know of) a summa distributor in the St. Louis...
