    I charge a "permit procurement fee", and that covers the extra labor of creating any drawings that the town will need, filling out the forms, and if it is in a historic area, attending the planning and zoning meeting to make sure it goes through ( in a local town, the p&z psople want to see...
  2. Not sign related, but... Issue with external card reader.

    Yep, it does. I just got back into the office to work on this thing, and that is exactly what it did. I never said I was the brightest bulb in the box... Thanks Choucove. You were dead on. And to top it off, when I was reading the N2C site, I noticed that if you click on 32 gb download, you...
  3. Not sign related, but... Issue with external card reader.

    No. I paid for the download, and bought a class 4 card. I emailed them, and they told me that it was the card reader. I just don't want to have to buy a new reader.
  4. Not sign related, but... Issue with external card reader.

    Hey, guys. I'm not really sure this is the right place for this post, and if not, Fred, please move it. I just purchased a 16 gb card to use in my Nook, and when I plug it into my card reader, and when open "My Computer", instead of being one drive, it shows up as (4) drives E-H. I have a...

  6. Updated my website with lots of hand carved signs

    Thanks for letting us know about the program that you used for creating the site. I do have a question about the signs you have done. What material are you using for them? Several look like PVC, but several look like HDU. Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks in advance.

  8. How do you make a pan sign 3D mold and paint / vinyl lettering in California

    It looks like the head has been taken apart for some reason. I think I would call Summa Tech Support, and get thier imput. They will know exactly what they are looking at, and tell you what you would need.
  10. Oracal 651 or 751

    One of the things that I learned early on is to never scrimp on material, it will come back and bite you in the end. Some have said 651, but I would rather get something that I know will work (not saying 651 won't), so I go with 751. Now if buying a whole roll of a goofy color is an issue, why...

  17. Acrylic faces for lit cabinet/box sign?

    Have you thought about installing a piece of material that large? Its going to be like wrestling an octopus, especially if your doing it in the air. I would sell the customer on a 2 piece face, and your material is not an issue. That you should be able to get from any sign Supplier such as...
