Talking about nonsense! Have you seen this?

Channelume/Let-R-Edge® is produced in 3", 5" and 8" and we have customers all over the world. 5" is our most popular return and for the most part it works great with LEDs. Please consider that when I'm talking about a 5" return the actual distance between the mounting surface of the LED on the back of the letter and the hitting surface of the acrylic face is about 4 1/2". This distance is actually less depending on the size of the LED body.
By special request we had produced a 4" return that push that distance down to about 3 3/4" and had worked OK with conventional LEDs (we did a sign with TFT LEDs).
Now our 3" Let-R-Edge® material leaves an even smaller distance of about 2 1/2" that it is already a stretch, we have tested minis from Sloan, Tetra, Allanson and we haven't found the perfect match! It is doable but you really have to spend a lot of time to get it just right!

We have a fellow friend that works in town with a company that uses Let-R-Edge® and an Acubend machine in their shop and he swears that overall he can fabricate more letters by hand with Let-R-Edge®, he uses the plastic layout tape. The machine can produce letters on Sunday but still you have to wrap the trim cap and ... while with Let-R-Edge after you wrap and glue the face to the return you're very much finish.
In this outfit the sales people are push to sale more machine formed pan channel letters because of the lease payment due for the machine even though they can quote lower with Let-R-Edge®.
-
If I may, allow me to share with you all a PDF file that we call Basics 101, it is for channel letter fabrication with the Let-R-Edge® system but for what is worth I think that in it we show the manual layout with a butyrate tape and stabillo (simple but really efficient method). We also have a Pattern Printer and software that reads the cutting file (DXF, AI, G code vector file) and produces a computerized letter return layout that matches the routed piece replacing the hand letter return layout.

Spokane, WA
City Government Regulations
NW Business Alert! Tonight (Feb. 23) starting at 6 p.m., the Spokane City Council will begin debate on a massive new sign code that could potentially cost some local businesses tens of thousands of dollars to replace their signage, if enacted. The issue, which was passed by the city planning commission by just a 5 to 4 vote, includes 45 pages of changes that will affect nearly every business in the city. Some of the provisions are: outlawing changing image signs like the one the PFD paid tens of thousands of tax dollars for in front of the INB Performing Arts Center; outlawing changing time and temperature signs and requiring businesses to remove them; limiting the height of signs along Division Street and Third Avenue to 25 feet and making businesses replace them if they have been updated; making it illegal to place more than 3 signs directing customers to real estate open houses, and even garage sales. The phone number for the Spokane City Council is 509-625-6350. Council members emails are JShogan, AFrench, SCorker, RRush, NMcLaughlin, BApple, MAllen, all at @spokanecity.org

Just looked at it you're right that is really cool!!!
Yes it is, but it is too bad that a good product can be misrepresented and gets a bad reputation just like that! We offer this tool as an optional but really useful part of our system; we back it up and surely know if it is going to work in X, Y or Z outfit. It is a great complement for our system until we get the automated option for Let-R-Edge up and running!

I understand Dino, I was thinking more about Holysemolians comment/concern!
Let me tell you, the Pattern Printer Let-R-Pattern® and software is a great addition for your shop if you are fabricating channel letters.
From your design software, you import the job file with a DXF, AI or G code extension and the Pattern Printer will print the location of the bends and curves, including the degree of bend, up or down into a self adhesive pattern tape. This can be use with Let-R-Edge material or for other jobs; like I sold one to a customer that use it all the time for stainless steel fabrication.

The version of wizard I have, does have the return plot option in it already. I don't need it anymore, I just buy wholesale, all my channel letters, and put my neon, or L.E.D. in the letters.

Forgive me for steeping into the conversation, the machine that you got from this guys, it was for vinyl printing.
If I understand correctly I think you did got reamed
I went to the Easy Channel Letter LLC website and saw what I think it is what you bought; it is the one called Easy Letter Printer?
You know that Channelume/Let-R-Edge have the patent for that software, we bought it from BJ Lapare and still hold all the rights. We are going to pursue legal action against the Easy Channel Letter LLC
About the printer, if it is the same one I'm looking we have it in stock, we have in 120 and 210 (that probably you don't want), the user manual is in English and it is priced right at $1850

Sounds like the return option is extra, or is it part of the software you have?I've tried the Wizard for patterns from a friends computer and had iffy results; don't know if it was me or the software. I am only 70% computer savvy, but know that if a software cannot import a simple dxf file from either Flexi (8.1) or Signlab (7.5 or so) or Corel (4.1, and 10) when you hit the import key, then it SUCKS. I am speaking now of the Easy Channel Letter 5.1 software that came with the printer. The rep, Neil Fancher, said there were minor adjustments in Corel which would have to be made (China goes by the metric system) and then voila, IMPORTATION. The trial software from Arete Corp. had no problem with any of my files and seamlessly went from Flexi to Arete and then exported into my ancient version of Graphic Advantage for my Sabre 408 router. So my problem with el Chino 5.1 is that 1) It was never said that I would have to have COREL DRAW as a software in order to get their software to work 2) Why is it that I have to do all the adjustments from the Chinese system to US?
The thing is, we never got to this stage, since the sample file which was already converted to a .dxf which EZ 5.1 could receive would not print correctly. The vinyl roll would not advance thru the rollers AT ALL and I couldn't figure any adjustment which would tighten it up.
Whoa, sorry I am still steaming about this. If your version of Wizard can work at 1400.00 then I might consider it, but how much more is the return labelling option?
I hope that it is cool to make a history of this product, the Easy Channel Letter System online on this website, since I believe that it is part of the mission of the website, to review products for the purpose of sign manufacturing sales and installation. I am purposely stepping on toes, and have advanced I hope past flaming people for the sake of feeling better. But this product really goes beyond the pale, and I am wondering if they are going to honor the 30% restocking charge. People need to be warned, first of all, because the original invoice said a 70% restocking charge, which Fancher said was a "default charge" for the higher end systems. (He told me on the phone 30%, which he subsequently changed the invoice to.) Secondly, they would not take a credit card for a 2900.00 total (can be cancelled) but insisted on a COD cashiers check. This means that fools like me could conceivably put out 60 or 80 grand for a higher end automated bender or router and lose 70% or worse for something that may not work at all.
The reason I wonder if they will give ANY of my money back is because when I tried the VERY FIRST THING after upacking Fancher said I "might have fried it." The manual said first, do not have it turned on when plugging in, or can damage computer or paralell port(s). What was that all about? Then, to blah blah blah in incomprehensible English which I could only surmise was an attempt to describe putting the roll into the sprocket holders. The rest of the paragraph is basically not clear. THEN the next paragraph was an American version (seemingly inserted) which I followed until it said to turn on. I knew that a converter box was included into the package and wondered, okay does this go into the printer plug? Skipped two pages and saw a digital picture of the
plug stuck to an adapter stuck to the converter. There was no adapter in the box, and the printer plug was not the same, stuck on haphazardly. The converter seemed to have round holes and the printer plug had two flats like a regular 110 no ground plug. So I shrugged and just stuck the plug into an outlet, which Fancher later said was a mistake.
Turns out the printer is a 220 appliance and the converter is to "fool" the printer into working. So I apparently plugged in 110 into a 220 appliance. Would this "fry" anything? Anyway, the printer seemed to later print fine, just could not advance the vinyl, which was a PHYSICAL adjustment, not an electrical one, since the rollers were all three advancing. I am just worried that they will say I killed it and therefore no money back.

I understood that, these sign companies do signs and use Let-R-Edge®, thats why I have them on my list.
Now you have their info just in case you want to offer them your system for projects they may be working on! I know that at least a couple of them are not commited to one especific lighting system and might benefit having your info, tell them you got their info from me if you want.
Cheers!
