Ordinary pinstripe we get from auto parts store. Around here we use O'Reilly Auto Parts. If the store doesn't have it in stock you order it and they have it there the next day. Trying to order from them online is possible but a nightmare because their website is so clunky. You'll get millions of...

We're at 7:03 up and 7:28 down today. Until 2005 we were starting at the beginning of April and ending the last of October. They decided to add a month on each end in 2005. It works OK here, but I guess down south it would be better if they'd left it April and October instead of March and...

I don't want the sun coming up at 4 am in the summer. I much prefer it coming up at 5 and going down after 9.

When we needed that logo, we hand traced it from our photo.

Here's an interesting perspective on what may be the future. https://www.zdnet.com/article/harvard-researchers-social-distancing-during-covid-19-may-have-to-be-turned-on-and-off-like-a-spigot/?ftag=TREc64629f&bhid=19642859966378487408539694530747

Just wondering why they would want digitally printed numbers. They are supposed to be solid color and shadows and outlines are only allowed when necessary for readability.

The rules are here: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CFR-2017-title14-vol1/xml/CFR-2017-title14-vol1-part45.xml#seqnum45.21 This is a clarification document which expands on it, and explains that you cannot use removable tape except under certain circumstances of temporary lettering (which...

I got an email from them saying they were streamlining their product line and reducing the number of people working but still open.

If you want to supply additional information, don't quote my post in your post. That makes it a response to my post, or in this case, a criticism of my post, since you started "whatever way you want to slice it or dice it..." and went on to make statements about how severe and infection with...

Could be true, but still no need to state them in response to a math correction. YOU made an interpretation of my statement that was YOUR opinion of my motive, when no motive was stated or implied. Then you posted your "sourced information" to make a political/ideological argument against what...

Yadda, yadda. The guy was dividing by the wrong number from his infographic, creating a factor of 3 difference in his result. That's not worth correcting?

Not sure why you always have to inject your beliefs about someone else's motives or inject politics or something else into it. I was just correcting a math error that basically was creating "fake news".

You're dividing deaths by total recovered. You have to divide by the number of cases. And this infographic is showing only laboratory confirmed cases. The number of actual cases would be a much larger number because the majority of cases are not laboratory confirmed. Try doing the same math of...

To me the only real fuzzy part of the process is at the beginning when you set ink limits. Even with the manual we got and the explanations for how to do it, it's really variable what you might choose for how much ink to lay down. The rest is pretty mechanical once you get to printing and...

I've never had prints on wood, but when you order coroplast signs from Signs365 they are UV printed, and we used to have a nearby supplier that used an HP UV flatbed, and they all stink. Never got sick from them but when we get a box of 18x24's it makes the front room of the shop stink until the...

I started just as painting died off. So although I did some pictorials my first year and numbered some docks with a brush, most of my work has been vinyl. We still coated MDO out, so on occasion I've done some painted boards, and I can still brush an outline or border on a sign.

We drove through Nashville twice this week, going to and from North Carolina. Everything looks to be pretty much buttoned up for after a tornado. They were rebuilding a bunch of wood pole billboards when we came home Wednesday. Massive lots out by the Nissan factory being filled with what looked...

Grimco recently raised their prices a lot on MaxMetal. These sale prices are pretty much the old prices. Maybe nobody was buying it at their new high prices.

You need to understand something about Italy's culture to understand how a virus could spread so quickly. First, their population is extremely old, with something like almost a third are elderly. Second, they tend to live together in large extended families all in one home, and third they...

We use it for larger real estate signs that need structural integrity (i.e. so they don't have to put 3mm coroplast on a piece of plywood)
