  1. Need Help Installer needed in Baltomore

    Try Duo Signage & Graphics? Their Instagram portfolio looks good.
  2. Is your bucket truck really broken.........?

    Yeah, these are the best/smoothest ones out there. I've thought of buying one myself but working at heights isn't my preference so I don't really want to do something that will result in doing more of it. I was stuck up in the air in one once. It would sporadically rotate but wouldn't boom in...
  3. Post holes with a drill...

    Are they? I've already dug multiple holes and hit rocks and roots and it will still do a 6"x24" in less than a minute. As stated, if it hits a rock or root it can't get through, the clutch kicks in. Same here in Texas - if you dig, you should call.
  4. Post holes with a drill...

    Evan Gillette Click HERE for the drill-to-auger adapter. Just received it, so can't speak to longevity.
  5. Post holes with a drill...

    Thank you. I didn't build the fence, a fence company did, but yes, they're galvanized posts.
  6. Post holes with a drill...

    The bits are cheapies off Amazon for the time being. I didn't want to invest more than I had to until I knew it was going to work. They're sold by ECO LLC. This is a new setup for me, so I can't speak as to the longevity of any of it.
  7. Post holes with a drill...

    Not sure what we're even disagreeing on, but ok. Not sure what cordless tools you have that have been disappointments because you won't say. Not sure where you got the torque specs from (nor do they tell the whole story of how well a tool performs anyway....) because DeWalt hasn't published...
  8. Post holes with a drill...

    What cordless tools do you have that are disappointments? I'm genuinely curious. For most corded tools, there is now a better, stronger, faster, lighter, more efficient, quieter, easier to transport (one or more may apply) cordless tool on the market. It's getting to the point that there's...
  9. Post holes with a drill...

    I've dug plenty in NY and PA.....no thanks lol. Too much rock.
  10. Post holes with a drill...

    Real world? Minimum? I'm not sure what you're getting at, sorry. This is completely different than core-drilling concrete and there's absolutely nothing soft about North Texas dirt. The dirt I went through is extremely hard and compact. If it looked easy in the video, it's because it did a good...
  11. Post holes with a drill...

    DCD460. There's a newer (slimmer) model but the specs are essentially the same.
  12. Post holes with a drill...

    This obviously won't work in every situation, but should do the trick for most installs around here when only needing to dig two or three holes. Anything over that and I'll use a tow-behind auger. In the video, I'm using a 6" auger with a 24" blade height. If needing a 10" or 12" diameter hole...
  13. Installing Banner With Velcro..

    Not a new method, by any means. It works great as long as the Velcro adheres well to the install surface. Home Depot sells industrial grade Velcro with a pretty aggressive backing. Obviously, test it on your install surface before installing.
  14. Question How Do They Do It? Acrylic bonding

    There are a few very thin VHB tapes that can be used. I'm blanking out on the product number but you can call 3M and tell them the two materials you're bonding and they can recommend what will work. Or someone here with a better memory than me can chime in. It's easiest to use a wide roll of...
  15. Is this REALLY how a sign cabinet should be built?!

    You're not tripping. I certainly wouldn't pay for that. Did they not give build specs prior to purchase?
  16. I-Beams

    Kind of a broad question... Do you have pictures of the wall in question? Are there access hatches?
  17. Installing 4x4 realtor signpost

    I wish we had sand......everything around here is Houston Black....AKA Black Gumbo. It sucks to dig in. That being said, I would think in sand it would be worth bringing a couple of plywood strips to put in the holes that the posts could slide down against. I dunno....
  18. Installing 4x4 realtor signpost

    Not silly at all....I have back issues as well. For me, bending over/digging the holes bothers me way more than lifting the faces. I'm usually feeling it the next day.
  19. Installing 4x4 realtor signpost

    No lol, I don't take the old posts out. I run a screw into each post, just underneath/against the existing panel, leaving just enough out so it extends past the panel. Then I take the screws out of the existing panel and the screws I put in the posts hold the weight of the panel. Easy to take...
