  1. What NOT to do when Selling a 4x8 sign and installing it....

    Understood...but the issue with that method is you might pound the rebar down, not hit anything, but there's a huge rock (or rocks) an inch over that you're still going to hit when you start digging. If there's something uncertain (digging holes where you may hit rock, sprinkler lines, etc...
  2. Tire Company Repaint

    Nice work, Jill! It came out really nice.
  3. What NOT to do when Selling a 4x8 sign and installing it....

    How do you survey for buried rock? Buried rock is just one of the unfortunate hiccups you might encounter when digging. That's why that kind of work can be quoted but with a clause included that such hiccups (rock, broken sprinkler lines, etc) will be dealt with on a T&M basis.
  4. How do you quote your out of area travel costs?

    I charge a flat amount per mile if I'm just driving the truck and a larger flat amount per mile if I'm towing the lift or trailer. I calculate the mileage from my house to the job site and back to the house. I've been confronted with the "no one else gets paid to drive to work" line of...

    You do very nice work...always enjoy seeing your projects!
  6. Post and Panel Redux

    If I'm understanding, the two 4'x8' faces would be attached to the single pole so they form a 8'x8' face? And that face would be 5' above grade? So the finished product would be 13' overall height? If so, your pier should be a little over 4' deep, which means your total support length would...
  7. Credit card reader for Android Galaxy Tab 2?

    Yep, that's the phone I have and it works fine. Not sure why it's not listed on the site...it may be that PayPal hasn't updated their site since the Note II was released. The readers are free, so it's worth giving it a shot even if your device isn't listed.
  8. Credit card reader for Android Galaxy Tab 2?

    Samsung Galaxy Note II is the "full name". I'm on AT&T.
  9. Credit card reader for Android Galaxy Tab 2?

    I use the PayPal reader with my Note II phone and have zero complaints. I don't need it often, but when I do, it's easy to use. It also has one of, if not the lowest, rates available. Add to that, a soon as you run the charge, it's in your PayPal account and you can immediately transfer it to...

  12. tow behind boom lift

    Nice work, Mike. What material and how is it attached?
  13. Well it's finally installed.

    Very nice sign....well done!
  14. tow behind boom lift

    This is one of the coolest lifts I've used. I wish I owned one because it's an awesome tool. It'll fit through a 36" doorway. This is also one of the most nerve-racking installs I've done. The lift was on a slight incline and the bucket had to be swung out so it was over a 45'± drop.
  15. For those of you who spend time on construction sites...

    Free hard hat.
  16. tow behind boom lift

    Yeah, if I were in the market, I would definitely opt for a bucket truck over a tow-behind lift. The trucks are just easier to maneuver. But then there are times when a tow-behind lift can be maneuvered by hand into spots a truck can't get. I'd still opt for the truck though.
  17. Edge Lit Sign Help

    I just happen to have a few old pictures from my previous place of employment.... The first picture barely shows an edge-lit sign next to my stretch-wrapped desk that was waiting for me after I got back from vacation. The other two pictures show an edge-lit acrylic panel (edit: just realized...
  18. tow behind boom lift

    Anywhere from $200-$300 out the door, which includes a 10% damage waiver and tax. Just depends where you get it from. I typically use Taylor Rental because they take care of their equipment, they allow me to reserve it, their equipment is the best I've used, and their customer service is superb...
  19. Edge Lit Sign Help

    The etched/lighted portion is still very easy to read. Not sure if that answers your question.
