    Material + Labor + Cost of doing business + Profit = Selling Price. If you feel a need to discount it can only come out of the profit side. Wait I am sorry I made a mistake he is a Democrat. You are a business owner. That means you are RICH. Do all the signs for free give him a 50.00 donation Sorry could not help myself David

    This is a skull we dipped for a customer, with their logo on it before the final clear coat. Think it turned out great, they loved it.

    Here's a link to a Pantone Color Chart. You can match to Oracal color charts that are avaialable online. http://suncoastsignshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/PMS-Pantone-Color-Chart.pdf Do them both on the screen to eliminate any variance from your moniotor colors.

    I use a Graphtec CE 5000 40 15in for my portable unit. If they want bigger then they come to the shop I have a Graphtec 30in cutter and a Roland printer cutter. mark-s

    My personal opinion is that it looks like crap. It looks like it's swirling and going down a drain...

    Hey new here just showing off some samples of my work. Everything was designed by me in Adobe Illustrator and cut with SignCut Pro and my Procut CR630. I use Oracle 951 for my basic colors and then anything special (such as camo) just get wrap grade material.

    Here's some flasks I did as groomsman gifts for my wedding last summer. Great for anyone with a creative eye and low budget. Flasks were $7 each on eBay and vinyl was scrap leftover pieces I saved...good reason to save so you can RECYCLE!!

    Did these two for my Team I have mine and one other to do but ran out of the correct size. Hard to see but the persons name is inside the bowling bag... We have had the same shirts for two years that I had done with vinyl and they are all great yet, just thought it was time for a change so I did these in sublimation on Vapor Apparel... old shirt done in vinyl And these two are mine and the other guy as soon as I get the shirts

    The Beacon is good but not a regular basis seeing as how your colon would clog in no time lol Good to see a neighbor on here. Still getting familiar with the whole vision--to design--to cut process. Really like your vehicle designs Moody

    I just did a rough estimate might be higher or lower. I normally lowball stuff myself. Being a political ad I would go way higher you know darn well they will find a way to tax you out of any profits you might make.

    What ever you do, don't make your samples on the Graphtec to show to your customers at the show., then produce them on a value cutter, They will never measure up. to the Graphtec quality when you go to make them, .on a value cutter. .... Make samples on the value cutter for shows. That would make you look bad. Bait and switch... You will see night and day difference..between the quality of a Graphtec and a value cutter. ......

    Forgetting to mirror is bad but forgetting when you hit cut for 5 shirts and walk away is REAL BAD. Been there, done that.

    I would not even use for lowballers the actual cost per project in my case signs is very little even between 651 and 751so I use the better grade the ease of weeding and installing is worth the difference in the cost. The old adage you get what you pay for stands true.

    Software? Change the "advance after cut" setting to something else, and see if it recognizes that. ((((((((EDIT: Aaarrrrrrrrrrrggghhhhhhhhhh the suspense is killing me -- what happened with your haunted machine? )))))))))))
