    We use this. It is a torch head cannibalized from a neon crossfire. It runs off propane,oxygen and air and puts out a very hot pinpoint flame. We scrape the machine marks with a razor blade and then one pass with the torch. Turns out looking like glass. You can also scrape with a razor and...
  11. Hello...I am not a graphic artist

    Very nicely said Dan.My feelings exactly. The moment I smell even a hint of me not having total control over the whole project I am not interested and move on. These type of clients are usually weeded out in the initial interview. I will make an exception to my rule for really big big bucks...

  19. Longer cabinet face joining

    You can get your Lexan in one piece delivered to you rolled up and you can decorate the face but that is only a very small part of doing a 4x24 sign face. Even with 2 boom trucks and a crane these kind of jobs are are difficult installs. Close your eyes a imagine handling a 75 lb 4x24 sheet of...
