So i found this printer, nice bloke, reasonable prices but one of those people that get so into a job that small details can often escape them.
Been trying to put together a fully functional trafficator box with audio
and its finally starting to happen.
My printer hasnt quite got his head around the whole thing as the first prototype came back with the symbols reversed, take two and everything semed perfect except for one small detail ,it was mounted on solid board
instead pf perspex, cant shine a light through it Very Happy
Im gunna stick with this guy, it will be a learning experience for both of us. Anyway, has anybody else had an experience with a project that didnt turn out as you first expected?

One of the first times I sold a digital painting, I ran it off to the printers and not only did I not have the color properly adjusted for printing, but when he trimmed the print the bottom edge was really half assed and ragged, and I had to brow beat them into running off another copy which I wound up taking home and trimming myself.

Since then, I've gotten better at setting up the work flow and the final product, so its less of a nightmare, but every project has its rough spots.
