Looking for input on router purchase. Anyone own and operate a Multicam ----------- how does it fare in everyday usage versus other brands. And -- for those that have a MultiCam --------- in put on the decision between the 1000 series and the 3000 series.

Thanks.

I can't help with Multi Cam but I have an AXYZ that has worked without issue since 2003. The only advise I would have is "get the biggest table you can afford". Seems like you always need to cut something bigger.

I HAD HAD A SHOPBOT FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO PURCHASE A NEW ONE, I LOOKED AT MANY DIFFERENT BRANDS AND TRAVELED TO SEVERAL MANUFACTURERS TO SEE THEIR MACHINES. I FOUND PRECISION AUTOMATED EQUIPMENT TO HAVE THE HIGHEST QUALITY AND THE BEST PRICING. I PURCHASED SERVOS RATHER THAN STEPPERS AND A 4HP SPINDLE. MY MACHINE IS A TANK! I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE AND ITS MADE IN THE USA. I ALSO FOUND THE PAE STAFF TO BE GREAT TO WORK WITH. -- MY SON HAS A MULTICAM AND IS TRYING TO SELL IT TO PURCHASE A PAE MACHINE LIKE MINE. HE HAS HAD ALOT OF EXPENSIVE REPAIRS AND DOWN TIME. HERE IS A LINK YO THE PAS SITE www.PRECISIONAE.COM -- HOPE THIS HELPS. TONY @ www.AAASIGN.com

      Mounting Signs On EIFS

      By Rocco · Posted

      It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

      Pepsi logo vinyl colors

      By Rocco · Posted

      Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
