I am Seriously considering buying a PRSstandard 96-48 with a Colombo 3HP High Frequency Spindle Model RS73 or (#12542) 230v/3-phase;* PRICE* $2,495.00 I don't know the difference yet, I was told the Colombo was a good Spindle however.


I have been the sign business for 11 years and Know Illustrator, Photoshop like the back of my hand. I have used Flexi Sign Pro from version 3 to 7.7v2 for MAC

I own a Graphtec Fc7000-130 and Mutoh 48" printer that I have learned to take apart and put back together because it break down every 3 months. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty to make something work on the software side or the hardware side.

I plan on using this machine to do ADA door signs as well as cutting out all the plex needed.

I will also be cutting out 1/2" acrylic and PVC laminated to brushed aluminum.

So far I know I should get the following

1) Accent Signage Raster Braille Kit and Bead Pen
2) Duxbury Systems -- Braille translation software
3) a dedicated PC to run the new equipment
4) have an electrician come out and make sure I have designated power


I don't know yet how this all works together but I'm willing to hear some advice on how to go about accomplishing what I want to do with this machine.
