We have had a 5445 for about 2 weeks we have already cut our
labor down by about 30 hours a week on part time help that we pay
8 a hour for here
that comes close to paying for the machine not
to mention the doors that are opening up
This is a coro x 
sign machine not so sure i would buy with
the ideal of doing a lot of metal or wood will do but 
not been real impressed  but we bought for real estate and
yard 
signs    beer and soda   distriburtors and such
we are nut and bolt 
sign guys not in to the arts and self satisfaction
its all about bottom line
we give the customer what they want 
if we can do a profit
period
and used right this is a profit maker
but they are going to make it hard on the guys trying to 
stick vinyl on the ink will cost much less than even the labor 
not to mention the materials we have went from buying a average of
10-15 rolls of 24 50yd material to about 
3 a week
