Thank you for accepting my registration! I own a branding shop in Utopia, Ontario (West of Barrie) We do custom wide format printing, screenprinting, embroidery, vehicle wraps and decals, sublimation etc.

We recently added a Redsail 80w to our business. A laser definitely compliments our business as we can use it to cut custom patch shapes, engrave on promo items and so much more as we are learning. I hope to learn as much as I can from this forum regarding use of the laser, tips and tricks as well as proven business models for success!

Thank you! :D

Welcome Lea Ann- I am retired from a Sign shop [still involved with it] and I have found lasers to be handy in many ways. We recommend saving your Vendor files as soon as possible as they are easily lost [details in the FAQ section]. If you have any questions please ask, our members are brilliant and eager to help. Gene
