The budget is is $2200.00 I thought 5 sheets of acrylic, RGB LED's, and a battery pack. The client wants the remote to change the colors of LED's and it to work from batteries.

The design includes a bird and some text. It will be displayed outside so it must be durable.

The box has 6 sides. The bottom will be the "service" side.

The question is how to attach them in the middle of the box. It's 38" x 38" x 57" Should we make a smaller box out of clear acrylic inside and glue the LED's to it?

Where should the LED lights be attached within a box to create evenly distributed light? We know how to glue the box together.

Hello Everyone! We are a quickly growing sign shop and have had some success hiring but it usually feels like more effort is being expended than necessary. We are currently looking into hiring a recruiter to at least filter through resumes and perform initial phone interviews. Does anyone here...

Also, to clarify, we are subcontracting out primarily electrical signage projects or too large or high up projects for our team to handle alone. LED retrofits, bulb and ballast replacements, pylon sign face replacements, etc. We pay our subcontractors right after their work is done. So far...

This is all great information. Thank you everyone! One other aspect of this that is subjective but we would like to get opinions on. Where is the line of letting a subcontractor go? Is there a structure that any of you use for this? Do you let the subcontractor know of this system before hand...

So we're talking about the second situation you mentioned. Removing or installing signage, performing service on electrical signage, site surveys, etc. Other question: who is responsible when things go wrong? i.e. sign being damaged during a service call

Hello Everyone, We have recently began out sourcing some projects to subcontractors. As we have grown this group and are working with a wider variety of people and companies we are finding there is too much variance between communication methods, techniques, dependability, etc. We've been left...

We already work through a broker and unfortunately their service is not what it used to be since they were bought out about a year ago. Does anyone know about switching brokers while maybe maintaining insurance? I wouldn't mind the cost as much if there were quick responses to simple requests.

Hello Forum, We are in the process of updating our company insurance and wanted to see how other companies have been faring on this front. We currently have a small team with some W2 and some 1099 workers. We have good enough insurance to work with nation wide companies - $1M coverage for most...

We are interested in used or demo equipment: HP Latex Printer 335, 360, 570 Summa cutter D140 Thank you.

Thank you for the replies! The considered space is on the 12th floor. Also, we found an office next door with a bigger elevator. Thank you!

Thank you! I'm afraid that the plastic will crack under the machine's weight.

Hello forum. Has anyone done that before? Can we put a printer upright? We are considering a new office and the freight elevator is too small. We are thinking about lifting the printer though an elevator shaft in an upright position. Thank you.

So best recommendations are partnership with existing company or sticking to production only. Has anyone been through the process before and can help out with contacts at city hall or something?

Hey Everyone, We are currently opening a branch in NYC and are looking for some help getting started there. We have researched the sign hangers license in NYC and it seems to be VERY restrictive. For instance, having 5 years of experience under a licensed sign hanger in NYC is one of the listed...
