  1. font id

    https://www.dafont.com/capsuula.font I think it has been thickened slightly with rounded corners maybe.

  3. Mounting glass panels

    If you're willing to have four small edge mounts visible, this is what they use to mount frameless mirrors...
  4. Sans serif with an interesting "4" character

    Aurora Bold Condensed
  5. Epson Surecolor S80600

    If sharpness isn't high enough look at head alignment and/or overinking in your profile.
  6. How Much should I charge?

    It's the Vietnamese sign shops. Fingernail salons around here always ask for a quote for their signs and then have them made by Vietnamese shops and shipped to them for maybe 1/5 what we bid. Using our design, of course.
  7. Hiring contractors - who sets the hourly rate?

    If I were providing a quote on a job that included removal of a too-old wrap I'd bid it really high too.
  8. Hiring contractors - who sets the hourly rate?

    Tell him it's too much and offer him what you think it should be. If he refuses, find someone else, do it yourself, or pass on the job. Or take his rate and mark it up and offer that to the customer.
  9. Did anybody else get a Signs 365 surprise?

    Yeah, I got one a week ago. Haven't had time to open it yet. I guess it's an acrylic sign, based on the box.
  10. How to tell the difference in Vinyl's.

    Tell the production manager not to waste time removing the labels. They are on the inside of the core and don't impede anything having to do with production. But if you use the vinyl regularly for a couple of days you will be able to tell the difference quite easily. They have different...
  11. DTF PNG vs Vector?

    They use png because then you don't have to tell people how to define the white areas in the print. Besides, file size isn't an issue because the final printed size is never bigger than the size of a heat press.
  12. Need a laugh? I don't know, but maybe AI might help...

    If you understood it's a shoe last then you got it.
  13. Corn hole

    When we've done them the customer has made them. I tell them it has to be sanded smooth and coated with multiple coats of polyurethane before we put the graphics on them. We don't wrap them. We make a flat decal to go on top. We've even done cut graphics for some wedding sets. Usually a full...
  14. install small dedication plate to concrete

    VHB tape won't hold on raw concrete. Moisture gets in the concrete, the concrete chalks, sign falls off. Epoxy can work. Screws work. Studs work.
  15. Nix Color Sensors

    I am using a Nix. It's easy and seems to give good results. I've been happy with it.
  16. Stand offs

    Ordinarily you don't worry about a contrast between the standoff color and the sign color.
  17. Hand flag with dowel/stick

    Parade flags are almost always stapled to the dowel. Even if these are to mark graves, they only have to last the weekend. Cemeteries usually get rid of Memorial Day displays the next week. www.customstickflags.com
  18. Price check: Install 4 posts along a hillside

    If the restaurant or marina has a handyman they can dig a post hole as well as anyone else, and not get paid anything extra to do it. Or maybe even the owner and a teenage son could do it in their spare time. I sell signs all the time and let the customer install them.
