    Wait a minute... I thought v.5 was last ever issue?
  2. Couple More Projects...

    I'm gonna recoup my expenses from 1st week of doing these. Posted pics on a local online site and have a few custom orders already. The "Time In A Saddle" sign is 18in x 24in. I'm calling these the Joe Jessup series. Joe was my college roommate and is a published author of an incredible western...
  3. Back at it...

    These ar 12in x 18in for the most part. The landscape format signs are 12in by 22in. I have no idea why I challenged myself starting back in this small. I used size 0 through 4 quills. Working on one now 18in by 24in. Wow, maybe I'll get to use a #6 quill! By the way, does anybody still use the...
  4. Back at it...

    This is my 1st couple days output in my new backyard shop building. After nearly 30 years away from full time hand lettering, I didn't do myself any favors starting back in with these tiny letter interior decor signs! Recreating the early days of commercial speed layouts, nothing labored over...
  5. That's Now How It Works...

    Getting back into full time sign painting is proving to be a blast. I have a few kinks to work out in my methodology however. This morning I coated out several small panels. I had a round one that I coated out white with enamel paint. It seemed to me the logical place to lay it was on my round...
  6. Covering large windows solid black?

    Years ago we blacked out a huge storefront with paint. The master painter who was training me said you mask around the window with 2 inch tape to leave a clear border. It was over a year the next time I saw the place and none of the 10 or 12 plate windows cracked.
  7. Hey joe / old paint!!!

    I guess you didn't see my last question on the Roland setup thread. I got it running after rereading every comment you ever made about it. Only have one lingering problem. I have the switch set for Sheet Loading. Every time I try to run a pattern the machine scrolls my paper way out to the end...
  8. Arlo 2.0

    The pain meds affected my outlook horribly. My personality was so changed on them I was alienating everyone around me. I finally figured out I couldn't be the only one who was right and everybody else was wrong. Congrats on the cancer free. I remember all this stuff about you. I call it being...
  9. Arlo 2.0

    I live in the teeming metropolis of Reno, TX. It's in between Azle and Springtown. Half hour from Fort Worth. Dallas... I've heard of that, isn't it somewhere near me?
  10. Arlo 2.0

    I agree bob. That is why upon returning I immediately read up on all your posts for the immense entertainment it always provides. I'll never understand those who try to bump heads with you. Exercise in futility.
  11. Arlo 2.0

    Sold the motorhome awhile back. Have a travel trailer now I rehabbed. Thinking about building an authentic teardrop trailer now when it cools off in the fall.
  12. Arlo 2.0

    Last year we bought a new house on an acre of land way out in the country in Texas in the middle of horse country. Three fourths of the vehicles going down my road are pickup trucks and half of them have a horse trailer behind them. I have the greatest neighbors ever. We have a real Texas BBQ a...
  13. OLD PAINT... the tired old story...

    Hey Joe... after rereading every post about Roland setup and following your comments I finally got this thing working again! The effort kinda made me miss the Goober plug and play by the way. I only have one problem now. It is setup with the dip switch for sheet loading. When I hit print more...
  14. Sign ARTIST Passed Away....

    what? I have no idea why this post formatted as it did!
  15. Sign ARTIST Passed Away....

    I recently learned on Facebook about the demise of a friend I hadn't seen in over thirty years. The story contained a link to an article about him in New Jersey Monthly magazine. His name was Matthew Bonaduce McGrath who lived in Verona, New Jersey. Years ago he followed me around like a puppy...
  16. OLD PAINT... the tired old story...

    I have searched all old posts about Roland PNC 950 driver download sites. None of them are active anymore. Old Paint posted one a long time ago and of course it is the only one I can't find. Joe, if you see this, do you still have that link?
  17. bob from earth,,, get in touch!

    hey bob, if you still frequent this place I need you to email me at davidkellems@gmail.com. I have a letter I tried to send you but you must have a new email address since our last correspondence. Thanks.
  18. MIKEY-O... Contact Me!!!

    Mikey... I lost my contact info for you in a total computer crash. I have something I need to discuss with you about your desire to learn hand lettering from a while back. Since I don't frequent this forum anymore, email me at: davidkellems@gmail.com. Thanks. I think you might be interested in...
  19. My Supermodel Daughter

    I just stopped back in to post the other pics I promised. These are to illustrate an article in something called a Social Series, this one being on cutters, girls who intentionally mutilate themselves. This isn't intended for any "weirdos to check out my daughter". I think, given the subject...
  20. Adios...

    I have decided to quit participating in this forum. Since I became disabled a few years ago I have no participation anymore in any sign endeavors. I'd like to thank the people who PM'd me their support and defense of my most recent thread concerning my daughter that was derailed by an...
