sure wasn't pleasant. hurt like a MFer. can't even describe it other than if you have had real bad back problems, like where you can't walk or move then multiply that x3 or 5 and you are getting there.
Gino i was hoping the anesthesia would take the place of the:bushmill:

unfortunately we are always fighting a price/cost issue but some jobs you just can't cut corners. the ultra board or gator are going to give you the best result and if you don't have a router/cnc to cut with you are kind of at the mercy of the vendor.
we have a vp and that looks like a heat issue (as many have already said) but could also be a profile setting. what material are you using and what profile are you using in versa works?
i have seen issues like that if someone used the wrong material profile. also have you done manual cleanings...
with out seeing the final art it hard to help you exactly but...when we have to do that we tape down the graphic and do the hinge method like already mentioned but not by hand. after it's taped down i lift the laminator wheel up and put the composite half way through then lower the wheel and cut...
looks like a heat or material profile issue. we have vp540, xc-540 and xr-640 and when we have had similar issues it was a heat or material profile problem. either the heat was off or too low for some reason or they used a generic profile. we use glossy calendared vinyl and matte calendered...
anything you print is going to use CMYK to create your image. the only thing that will print 100% black with out CMY are the crop marks for cutting alignment. found that out because i was having an issue that my crop marks wouldn't print. turned out that my black wasn't registering correctly and...

thanks
the print/graphics i was going to sub print on gloss polycarbonate on my uv and back it with white then adhesive and mount it to the wood. just trying to get a better base material.
customer needs a new sign/plaque for outdoor use.
is there a similar material to the wooden plaque board that will hold up outside?
or can i just put clear on a new wood plaque (if so what would you recommend)?
i had the same issue with a gray job i did recently. it had a flood gray background and the machine kept producing that type of banding. the people we bought the printer from told me it might be a static issue if not it's because it's hard to hit the gray color. we are using a roland LEJ so i...
recently had to do a couple of trucks for a customer, they had to be done to get to a new location. couldn't wait and couldn't do them inside. temps varied from 29-33 degrees. had a couple of issues getting the vinyl to stick on the steel boom of the trucks but hit it with the torch and it was...
frank is just being a DB now. used to be you had to enter your customer code to get the pricing. i wonder what the ratio is to new business he will get to how much he will lose by doing this.
used to buy a lot from them but it has quickly decreased over the years because they don't have the...
i think you get that with any job/career when it gets super busy or stressful. just have to have out of office hobbies to help relieve the stress, my hobby is scotch. when i get stressed out i just bury my self in my hobby, crack open a bottle of 18year old and the stress drifts away...haha but...
we have used the aluminum faced plywood many times also, luckily no complaints but that's not to say that it didn't happen just nothing was done about it or the place we used it just got a new sign and didn't get it from us. lately we have been using more and more of the aluminum face with the...
