A sincere thankyou, To everyone who offered advice and tips during this process. This was my first job for my first customer and he was delighted. Finished on time and on budget thanks to the help I received here from some of you. A big thankyou also to the nay sayers who thought I couldn't do...

That's true, and I'm definitely prepared for failures, its part of the process. I had a conversation with my boss (the owner) last night, and he said that if I need 2 days to use 2 days. I'm sure that first big successful project felt like a huge win. I'm hoping to have a similar victory in the...

Thankyou! i had no idea you could do that with the Roland, i thought once the media came out, the Roland wouldnt recognize it again once fed back through. But that makes sense! I only ever cut and print simultaneously with the Roland. I will be looking into these books and taking your advice...

Thanks! that's an invaluable nugget to me.

That's genius, i will be using that exact technique next time. Thankyou for that time saver.

I will have help with the install luckily, the rest is up to me however. I took someone's advice here and superimposed the decals on photos of the trailer. unfortunately they were photos the owner sent to me and weren't great quality. But they were better than trying to make a template in AI...

Im 28 and graduated from AUarts in spring 2023 with a degree in design and illustration. I moved back in with my parents after school, couldnt find a job in my field for 9 or 10 months (applied to over 100 entry level jobs) and was working a janitorial gig until i found something. I lucked out...

Im Canadian, we utilizes the Brit spelling usually. Colour, Honour, ect. I think as its my first crack at a job like this and i have no help, the decals might be a safer bet, I agree that the wrap wouldve been better overall but im a little intimidated by it so i told the customer individual...

Thanks! Thats a great idea for making sure everything will fit. I will get those photos and try it your way. I dont think anything is reflective at the moment. The reflective material i mentioned earlier was just what we have on hand thats vehicle grade, but after White Haus's input i will not...

I agree, the design isn't great but its closely based on the customers pencil ideas. I'm mostly concerned with the logistics of material choice at the moment and price estimation. Thankyou for the head start on that. And the outlines are going to be removed as well as the fonts changed...

This is roughly how it looks at the moment, i already received notes from the customer for changes. But he seems pleased overall with the direction its headed. We were initially talking about the possibility of a wrap but decided to go with individual decals instead. Yes there is a shop here to...

Thankyou for the reply, This is the trailer, I believe it has some rivets and obstacles.

Thanks very much for the reply, and for narrowing down my choices. We have some IJ180mc-10 on order along with some 8518 Laminate. We ordered those for some boat decals we're doing so i will let the customer know that the material is on its way instead of using what we already have (The wrong...

Hello everyone, I'm very new to the industry and I recently got a work order from a local blue collar guy starting his own foam injection business for concrete leveling. Its my job to produce and install his decals and I've never done it before. I'm on my own for this project so step one is...

do you know if the normal cleaning solution is safe for the material of the belt? I do not want to degrade it.

Thanks guys! ill update once things have happened.

This thread is old but hopefully help can be found. This is my first post and i recently started a new job as a print shop operator (no experience) in a design and manufacturing company. Nobody here knows anything about the Roland xr-640 aside from me and what ive learned on my own about it in...
