  1. Vinyl awning with seam in the way

    I would not letter that mess, as I have said, but if you must do it, do not take it down. It will have it's most tautness while up on the frame. Ya just clip a board to the backside and letter away. Been there/done that many many times. If they pay someone to take it down, they should keep...

  3. Vinyl awning with seam in the way

    Heat seam or not, there are so many puckers and wrinkles, nothing will ever stay on that properly. Like mentioned, either walk away or tell them not to do anything. Just let it be...... let it be...... let it be, let it be. Those the words of......... ??
  4. So, how're ya planning it................................................................................... ??

    Yeah, while it might be dead and no phone calls, I can get a lotta stuff cleaned up and things put away, in those 3 days. Kinda nice, to have some peace & quiet.
  5. Vinyl awning with seam in the way

    First, the execution of that awning is p!ss -poor. I'd tell your customer to tell them to do it over and do it correct, this time. There are far too many wrinkles and that seem should never have been there. They musta opted to have some schmuck make the awning and this is what they got...

  7. So, how're ya planning it................................................................................... ??

    We're gonna close mid afternoon on Wednesday and come back in Monday. It's the only 4 day vacation, I can count on i any given year. Been doing that for over 50 years. Christmas we'll probably close up early on Friday and come back Tuesday, same with the New Year's weekend, too. Wish all...

  9. Bounced Checks

    I get a kick outta people who come in to pick something up and KNOW the amount and will say, so that's $XX amount, right ?? I'll usually say, you're close if was $XX + a lot more. Then, these mental midgets will say, no-o-o-o-o....... you said ba-dum-bum. Works every time.
  10. One man shop growing pains

    Wha..... do ya put your yoke on and take it out in wind, snow, rain or ice ?? Do you sit on the stool and go through it to make sure it's trash or not ?? Kinda like Santa's naughty or nice list................ We just plop it in either burnable trash cans or just plain throwable trash for the...
  11. One man shop growing pains

    Sounds like my job. When I used to go to conventions and meetings, my name tag always had my position as "janitor". All paper and cardboard stuff, I take home and burn it once a week. The other stuff, we have 3 huge about 50 gallon baskets on wheels and that stuff goes in the dumpster about...

    Do you take the trash out 3 or 4 times a day, too ??
  13. One man shop growing pains

    So, what's the longest vehicle you wanna tackle ?? That's how far your bay area should be. I'd say maybe 30'. That's room for a vehicle and get around both sides and front & back. When vehicles aren't in, you can utilize the whole shop for fabricating. Your printer/cutter/laminator should...
  14. Bounced Checks

    We upped ours to $65. about a year ago. It's almost all company checks or credit cards anymore. Can't remember the last check that bounced, but yesterday, a guy's credit card receipt stopped 1/2 way through and said declined. He made a phone call and 5 seconds later, the card went through...

    You need an ice cream cone. Go get one at lunch and you'll feel better. I gorantee it.
  16. One man shop growing pains

    You might wanna do some more research on that. First, ya don't have 18' ceilings and when heat rises, that means a lot. Might wanna put 2 or 3 ceiling fans in to push the heat back down. If you turn you main heat source off and just heat a small area, it'll take quite a bit to warm that whole...

  19. One man shop growing pains

    No reason for an office area, if you're a 1 - 5 man shop. Hang a really neat banner from the ceiling from wall to wall and make the installation fool-proof and put up some make-shift walls with a sliding door. That'll cut ya off if ya need privacy for the bathroom or eating. Don't waste...
