  3. Permit Fees

    I charge $75 to fill out the forms, if the customer is pulling permits. They can usually use my proof drawings to pull the permits. Now if it's the hysterical... I mean historical district, the price usually goes to $350, because I know I'm going to have to go to the meeting, and explain why I...
  4. Where can I order the translucent back panel of a readerboard?

    Unless it's a narrow cabinet and you need pan form faces. But you can still get that at sign supply house as well, just have to order
  5. Bad service from signs 365

    > you would think. I did a job with them that was 8 maps, with different "you are here" indicators on each one. I set the file up with 4 maps on each print, and it was 10 foot each print. The first file was named Maps 1 - 4 and the second file was named Maps 5 - 8. When I got them in and...
  6. Bad service from signs 365

    That's the thing with signs365. when they are good, they are great. when they screw up, they do it in a royal fashion... But to say your done with them is a little short sighted...unless you have a replacement vendor that your comfortable using, be it with a slightly higher price, and slightly...
  7. EstiMate and Windows 10

    I have no clue what you just said.
  8. EstiMate and Windows 10

    nope. I just ran into that issue a few months ago when my windows 8.1 laptop hinge broke (gotta love hp laptops). I searched for another laptop that had windows 8, and had no luck. So I had to go to Windows 10, and it will not run Estiate. Nor would it run Corel 15, so I had to upgrade to...

    I use Indy imaging.
  10. Need Help Hydro-Dipping, fire hazard?

    I have a friend that does it, and I can't speak to the fire hazard, but he had to get his FTL license. Most of the time you take full firearms in and have to disassemble them.
  11. Which is has the most aggressive vinyl?

    I am going to order some printed vinyl from Signs365 for some Yeti Cups. I usually order the 3M ControlTac IJ-180C (wrap film) for other projects, and have done a couple of cups for my wife, but I know she washes them by hand, and there are no issues. I just don't know how the customer will...
  12. Does anyone use the CADTool 5 macro for Corel?

    I need to check into this. I draw to size, and then scale the sign down to fit on a sheet, drag guidelines to the edge, and just make the lines and enter the dimension text as needed, and Mark the drawing scale on the title block to NTS (not to scale)
  13. HDU questions for a hanging sign

    I miss read... it says routed, but I skimmed, and mistook it as round... But still, I like a steel structure in my HDU signs
  14. HDU questions for a hanging sign

    Being round, I'd be concerned with drilling it straight. When I make an HDU sign, I always rout the sign, flip it and use my hand router and rout a channel for laying in a fabricated steel structure. I glue together with West Systems epoxy...

  16. Logo Idea

    One thing I have found, I, myself, am the hardest customer to please. I tried to come up with a logo for myself, and was never really happy... So I contacted an independent designer. I called Phillip at Amigo Signs (Neato on Signs101), and hired him to help me out, and it was the best thing I...
  17. Vinyl on Sunbrella marine canvas (awning)

    Is there a special process or vinyl to add decoration to a Sunbrella marine canvas? I have a customer that has ordered an awning, and they would like to have their logo on the end. If it's just high performance vinyl that is decoration, I could do that in house for a fraction of the cost from...
  18. Vinyl adhering to Ronan aquacote?

  20. Sad news, read about Bob Stephens (Sign Maniac) in the newest Signcraft

    Thanks for that link David. The best part of that, and I'm cutting and pasting it here: "I know I come on a little strong when it comes to pricing sign work, but I've paid a heavy price in these last twenty two years and I refuse to let the customer dictate what my skills are worth. It upsets...
