Title: Trying to print console box
Post by: vilaman on January 27, 2021, 02:07:03 PM

Hi, I've been searching for a long time and I can't find any topic similar to this.maybe there is a topic but I can't find it....sorry..  I want to print a box of the 8-bit nintendo NES console but the companies tell me that for a box it is not worth it, they want to charge me more than $ 100. In some places they ask me to give them the vectorized file and in other places they do not want to do it. I understand that the problem must be the measurement of the impression that must be between an A0 and an A1 but I do not understand why no one can do it to me cheaper than 100 vox ... I have gone to printers, to screen printing companies ... they are all expensive or they do not want to do that. Is there another cheaper option? thanks.

You could probably get quite good result by printing it in two pieces on to A2 papers and then glueing them onto one big cardboard.

Nobody will be interested in doing a run of one box.  Either pay up for dies and such to have 100+ produced, or make it by hand.

I wouldn't touch a one-off like that either.  I would definitely have some sort of MOQ in order to even consider it.

I meant using their contacts to get hold of some.
They might know someone who knows someone works at factory that makes/made dual-disc PS4 cases.
