I thought splices were a thing of the past... granted, 95% of my rolls are 10 yards, but I haven't gotten a spliced roll since the mid 2000's... But I do seem to remember getting 50 yard rolls in the 90's, and seeing that little tab somewhere in the middle...

I am about to purchase some printing from my go to printer, a national supplier, who has very good prices. (You all know who I mean, but I am not mentioning the name, because of this posting in an open forum, and not the members only forums). When I log on, I see they are offering a new...

Am I reading this right? You are asking for people to design a wrap for you, in a contest, so you can wrap your bucket truck? I can understand educating customers on the importance of our time, and "designing" stuff " just to see what it would look like", but do we have to educate people in...

Funny thing is, we are not professionals (in a lot of people's eyes). That's why we are the industry that has to deal with last minute jobs (like they didn't know they were opening a business and need a sign by tomorrow)... So if we are not important enough to get a call to cancel an...

Wow. I got mine, and got it home, built a wall in the middle of my shop (separating my router from the rest of the shop) and mounted it to the wall, replace the saw with a new circular saw, and I use it every other day. I look for an excuse to cut a board down...even to the point of telling my...

Does anyone know a vendor for 14" round aluminum sign blanks in .063 or .080 and white? I could send it to a vendor and have them rout it from a sheet, but I figure there has to be someone out there that has round sign blanks....

I am from the Laurel / Hattiesburg area. I worked at Image Signs in Hattiesburg, and left there, and went to Headrick in Laurel.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Where in Mississippi are you? I lived there for many years. You may need to find a shop to partner with and collaborate... As far as finding good help, it's difficult. You need to find some one that fits, without knowing too little, and you have to train...

Sign Amigo... nuff' said.

Take it and throw it out in the burn pile, or nail it in your garage.... Time to call a sign supply and order the correct materials for the job. MDO (or you can order an Aluminum composite material, which won't have to be painted), Acrylic Enamel paint (you can use one shot), fill any voids in...

What gets me is every body is all pissed off about him, and he hasn't even been in office yet. Give him a chance, and then grill him for what he does, or doesn't do... he can't be any worse than the last president (and I'm not putting my political views in). The thing that really gets me is...

Yeah, tell me about it. Other than my wife having complications from surgery before Christmas, I ordered a sheet of SignFoam 4 (18#) on Wednesday so that I could get started on a dimensional sign this weekend for a friend, and it shows up today, except they sent me 15# Precision Board... :banghead:

Or, CNC... But if it has curves, are you going to be able to put edge cap on it? The edges have to be finished in some way, and painted edges would be tedious to finish out...

I did too... I forgot about the camper that my wife and I got for each other. We got a 21' Travelstar with 3 fold out beds. I kinda wanted one with a slide out, but they weigh significantly more, and I didn't want to push the towing capacity of my Dakota..

Vector doctor.

My wife got me a new pair of boots, but my big gift was a cat back Flowmaster exhaust to go on my truck. I am getting it installed tomorrow...

Sign maker. A cheap customer can be sent down the road. Just remember, you can want in one hand, **** in the other, and which will fill up faster? Just because they want it doesn't mean they should get it.

I had to redo the graphics on the side of a water tank truck for a local fire company. When I looked at it, the thing was empty, so the corner came up super easy, so I thought that it would be a piece of cake. I ordered the new vinyl, and went back about a week later to do the job. Well, they...
