Title: Where to get artwork in Canada?
Post by: GrandBofTarkin on July 28, 2014, 01:20:09 pm
As the title says, where are the places to get artwork printed (laminated, glossy or whatever) in Canada, Ontario preferably?

Cheers!

Thanks I'll look into that.
For the control panel I would like laminated so it'll stand up to the beating it'll get. Or an actual printed laminate I can glue to my MDF.

Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to mention that I can print artwork and I am located in Kitchener, Ontario Canada.

Maximum size is about 52" wide x 150' long. I've been restoring arcade machines for 12 years and last year I purchased the equipment to start printing my own art (after getting frustrated with over-priced, low quality prints). I'm not on this board much, spend most of my time on CGCC.ca

If you need a quote or timing you can send me your art files or overall size and material requests to support (at) printshock (dot) com

This is a part-time business for me, I work full time at an engineering company so I can provide more reasonable pricing that some places. I can ship or you can pickup if you are close enough. There are some reviews on CGCC (and I think a couple people on here have had some work done as well).

Cheers.

Guys I just used DigitalAssult to print the artwork for my Punch-Out bartop.
I have nothing but EXTREMELY POSITIVE things to say.
This was the best quote I received for my artwork...and that includes options in China.
The quality is second to none, the colors vivid & all the art was cut to the correct size/shape as needed.
And if that were not enough the shipping was super fast !

For anyone looking for not only a great option, but a great option close to home try out DigitalAssult.
You will not be disappointed.
