  1. Suggestions re-installing stud mounted acrylic lettering

    If it's painted drywall, the wall is going to need patch and paint regardless. If they're stud-mounted, it's going to leave holes. If they're tape-mounted, it's going to pull paint and likely some of the drywall facing. It's extremely rare that tape-mounted letters are just going to come off and...

  3. 6ft x 48ft wall mural

    Devil's Advocate: So the argument is that the second panel "stretched" and didn't line up with the first panel because the second panel stretched. Why did the second panel stretch more than the first panel...? If they're both unlaminated and installed in the same manner, wouldn't they both...
  4. Best Glass Glue

    The same stencil cut pattern was used for both sets.
  5. Best Glass Glue

    A couple of examples... This had 2nd surface privacy vinyl so the tape etc would have still been visible. So vinyl was installed first then the letters on the vinyl. These aluminum letters were tape mounted then reversed letters were installed on the inside to help cover up the backs.
  6. Best Glass Glue

    I've installed a number of these on high end offices and it looks really nice. A bit higher end than paint or vinyl. This is exactly how it's done. Vinyl is cut to the same exact shape as the numbers, letters or logo and applied to the glass. The dimensional letters etc are then installed with...
  7. Pole clamp sleeves

    PVC shower pan liner from works well.
  8. What do you think is going on here?

    Anyone who's used one knows you roll it off in neutral so as not to consume battery life. And hey, a mini excavator might not be far off. DeWalt has a prototype 9 ton log splitter (still has hydraulics). EGO has a battery powered 52" zero turn mower that will cover 4 acres on a single charge...
  9. What do you think is going on here?

    You could dig a 8' x 10' x 18" spread footing in under 30 seconds with the cordless rotary.

  11. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    Didn't say it was exclusively about signs, but that was the topic when cordless tools were brought up in the thread. My point was just that when it comes to sign installs, or removals, for that matter, cordless tools can basically hang with corded tools. There are obviously advantages and...
  12. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    Well done
  13. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    I think this just got sidetracked a bit. The discussion was about cordless tools and sign installations. Then it got turned into production work on trailers. Without any real details, I'm not going to argue whether or not cordless tools could work on redecking trailers, when they would be...
  14. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    Once or twice what...? What's the problem exactly? What were you using a recip saw for at your shop?
  15. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    I'm genuinely curious. What are these trailers for that you build? What are you using a drill for - are you driving self-drilling screws through lumber then through steel cross members?
  16. ADA Question.................................

    Whether it's a hotel or not has nothing to do with requiring Braille. The Contractor will need code-compliant signs for his TCO and CO.
  17. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    I'd use a cordless recip and a Diablo Steel Demon blade. It would blow through the stub pipe and the square tube like butter. No generator, no cords, no torches, no tanks.....a cordless recip and a blade.
  18. ADA Question.................................

    If you're going to sell and/or install ADA signs and aren't using a consultant, etc., you need to familiarize yourself with the ADA, IBC and IFC requirements related to each specific sign type.The answer(s) are probably much more in depth than you're thinking. Stairway ID signs need to be...
  19. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    I completely agree with your last paragraph. Every source of power (electric, gas, coal, nuclear, hydro, solar) has a downside and I don't think any human can accurately predict which is best long term. I try to do the best I can environmentally with what I have but there are still negative...
  20. Installing a 4x6ft wood sign

    For my needs, I can't think of any install situation where I'd rather drag a cord around and have a generator running than having the portability of a cordless tool. They may be stronger, but if they are, it's marginal and corded tools are typically heavier and more cumbersome than cordless...
