    Just finished this banner, all done on the kitchen table. (not braggin about the size of my table, It’s only 8×4 😀 )
    Just wondered if this could have been printed cost effectively?.
    Took us 3 hours. its 10 metres long by 1220.
    Still working, on a bank holiday! 2 more banners to make yet..
    Lynn.

    Would have definately subbed it out just by the sheer length.

    Great job though, sometimes worth a struggle.

    I do it on my kitchen table every day!
    For REALLY big ones like that I do it in the garage.
    Why sub it out?
    Nice clean job Lynn.
    Love….Jill

    I don’t have any idea what that would have cost to be printed, but with how simple the design is I would have done it in “house” as well. Do they know how big 10 meters really is? Nice work Lynn.

    Sorry Lynn, I just meant there wasn’t mulitple colors or anything like that. I’m sure that coat of arms took a couple of minutes to weed. 😀

    You did very well with this lynn, I have done a couple this size on a 3.6m table at work, so to do on a kitchen table would have been that bit harder.

    I would have printed it, but only because I can, but before I got my Roland, I would have done it in computer cut inhouse too. The key is making sure your measurements are correct, and you find the centre, but I guess you know that too 🙄

    Cheers

    Looks good Lynn. We would have made it in-house. The only time we sub banners out is if they have to be complete coverage full colour print images … such as supermarket banners etc
