Primal Decals

Very sweet Skarekrow, i feel much better knowing where the hinge would be best, I use the hinge method alot on other installs but this one had me stumped due to the valley and if the vinyl would crease or shift on me etc. i was worried i would have to cut it which i didnt want to do..Thanks guys

Thanks Jburns..

Hey Josh,I was having the same problem as you and i couldnt figure out why,Everytime i would install etc, it would be there and then the next time it was gone,,So i gave up and just did the old fashion way import into scalp..Im curious if anyone else may have a final solution for us both, im running the same system as you ..

Hope this helps

Sent you a message JonnnScott

Hope you can help or have ideas on this.Im trying to make sure in in the right ballpark with what im charging .I know that i could be charging certain amounts for design time etc,but im more concerned on just material markup. I was curious if there is a markup everyone is doing for example material like oracal 651 and 751.If you know your cost of what the material cost you per foot or square inch etc, is there a percentage you add to the cost to make sure you are making or charging enough. For example my buddy that owns a Photography printing shop charges like 2.75% to his cost of material and ink etc to get his profit cost. Also If i understand it correctly,i got a vinyl calculator spread sheet off here once and changed the figures as needed to show what my cost of roll of material would be etc per sq ft and sq inch etc,and the numbers are showing me for example a roll of oracal 751 matte black($59.00)24"x10yds is like a .98 per square foot my cost and a 6"x50" window decal 1 color ends up being $2.05 my cost? Am i doing this right or missing something...These numbers are what the spread sheet tells me .. Thank you everyone in advance.

Thank you Jaybird.. Glad to see your input.. Im happy for what i charge then ..

i still havent seen if anybody will. say what they charge for an example 4x40 decal for window.. nothing special just plain matte white.. Unless its a secret code to not say what each person makes ..

Thats what i thought Jaybird..

I found this..... http://thesignexpert.com/sign-pricing-calculators/vinyl-calculator/ Not sure how accurate it is ,,To me it seems low unless you choose "intricate "under complexity of graphic..

Im Actually charging $30 for 1 of these 5"x40".

So im curious what you guys would charge for a typical 5"Tx 40W decal for windows in matte white nothing else. For example NOR CAL OFF ROADERS

Thanks for your input

oh ok Jaybird .Thnx. I do save scraps. And it works perfect

Why such a large area for that KYSIGN?If you only are using everything within that size of area?

So just so i know , what would you charge for a 6"x40 in 1 color window decal? if your cost was 2.05?thnx

Im passing these to others ... This was given to me from a friend at a machine shop and with me still being new, im not sure if this is useful or not so let me know.If it is then great, if not ,at least i tried and know something new lol. These are supposed to be perfect for like the Store window fronts,car rear windows etc Perforated Holes Layout.ai

Nice job..looks fantastic

Just wanted to say hi to everyone.Ive been in the group for just about 2 months or so and i kept forgetting to say hello on here, I just got into the vinyl work 3 months ago and love it , its just a hobby ,My primary hobby is photography and i love it ,Im actually disabled from a job injury back in 2004 and been trying to keep myself busy with anything i can from going nuts, so i found this ..If you want to see my website here you go.Im self taught and im learning more everday.. Thanks Dwayne Enjoy..... http://www.pippinphotography.com/

Thank you everyone.. I just do it to keep my mind at ease with the pain i get everyday, It helps to keep my mind occupied on anything i can. That's why i got into vinyl as well..

Im taking a shot in the dark but really could use this. Im looking for a side view only of a mid 80's to 1990?'s of a Mazda Rx7 clip art or line drawing no color if possible. Im only going to use part of the image. I need to use the roof line to rear and front and partially behind the front tire with possibly the side mirror and side window ..I hope i gave enough info on this..Thanks to anyone who can help.. I tried looking on google but couldnt find anything ...Thnx.

Thanks Skarekrow.I will see if that will work, Thanks a bunch

im wanting to get into printing on vinyl.Im not looking into doing large work something under 24" at the most. What do they start out at for prices and whats a good brand to go with that will do me good and not worry about major issues some cheap ones may have. Thank you.

if 5 colors match and 1 doesnt then why wouldnt they all be good or all bad ? Doesnt make sense to me ... Thank you everyone.. i just need to find someone to print this

whats funny is , i did a test print on my awesome printer but i cant do larger than 8x11 that i use for my photo work, and i also took it to a friends lab that does high high end prints and huge prints and his and mine both look identical to each other and what i exactly needed, so im not sure why signorama couldn't produce for me what we did for tests..
