  1. Learn CPR... NOW! It's that important...

    I'm so thankful that she's ok. I have a 2 year old and can't imagine what that must have been like for all of you. I don't know CPR, other that what I learned in high school many years ago but I'll definitely try to learn. Thanks for sharing.

    I actually think that I give myself WAYYYYYY too much credit. Up until now, I thought that I was responding to a lucid individual that just didn't understand my point. Finally, I understand otherwise. Have a great night!

    I'm not quite sure, but it seems you have a lot to say on the subject so I thought a little extra encouragement might be all that you needed. Since that doesn't seem to be the case, I'll try clarify what I thought was already crystal clear. I think Jon Aston is a very valuable member to our...

    That's fantastic! Might I suggest you start a thread about it!

    Common sense might suggest that, but that certainly hasn't been my experience on a consistent basis.

    I give credit where credit is due. If you had passed on anything useful on a regular basis, I guess this post would be about you.

    Magic, no. Incredibly helpful to the success of my business, yes. There have been lots of times when I've suddenly understood something that seems like common sense, but only AFTER someone else has pointed it out to me.

    Many of us on Signs101 already know about Jon Aston and know that anything he posts is going to be valuable to our business. But for those of you who don't know, search for any of his posts and you'll see what I mean. If you're on FaceBook, "Like" his company at...
  9. Solar Powered Sign Shop

    We just moved into the building in February and prior to that, it didn't have the addition that we put on it so I don't have great historical data. In February, our power bill was $500. We have 220 thin film panels that are 3' x 3' so it's right at 2,000 square feet. Each panel is 60 watts...

    I guess that's possible but I'm not sure if it's legal - again, because of the back feeding issue. I guess you could disconnect from the power grid to make it safe. These panels can be mounted on an angled roof.
  11. Solar Powered Sign Shop

    The section that we installed the panels on is new. It has an EPDM roof that has a 20 year warranty. By going with the bar joist system that we chose, we actually have nothing sitting on the roof at all. The bar joists sit on the outside walls. The only penetration we have is one, 6" hole...

    I looked at the efficiency early on in the research process but don't recall what is was. There are lots of free online calculators for this that will take into account your geographical region, panel mounting method(inclination angle, shading, azimuth) and energy cost. There are no measures...
  13. Solar Powered Sign Shop

    We have a grid tied system so there is no storage. If we generate more electricity than we can use, then the surplus gets pushed back into the power grid and our meter runs backwards. The power company must support "net metering" for this type of arrangement to work. On sunny days, our meter...

    A few months ago, I posted a thread about potentially installing solar panels on our roof (http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=60122). We ended up doing the project and turned it on about 3 weeks ago. (Pics attached) I just wanted to give an update if anyone else is interested in...

    Here a quick picture tutorial for iSign or anyone else who might have time and be willing to do this. By the way, the temperature in my shop is about 75 degree F which may be important if my theory is correct.
  19. Edge 2 Fan

    About a year ago, I noticed that our Edge 2 fan wasn't running about the same time that another Signs101 member had the same thing happen and started a thread about it(here http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53650) To quickly summarize - his problem was that the fan on his Edge 1...
  20. Customer Rude Behavior

    Reminds me of the SNL sketches, "Two A-Holes go to a ______." In your case, the blank would be "Sign Shop".
