  1. New 4x8 sign

    no...TUBELITE. www.tubelite.com I'm not looking up the phone number for you, too. They sell sign materials....they deliver sign materials in big trucks that say Tubelite on them....they have delivery routes all around their warehouses....you're an hour away, I'd be a little surprised if they...
  2. New 4x8 sign

    While you're on the phone with Tubelite talk to them about your screen printing supply needs too.
  3. Thank you Cricket Plotter forums!

    Exactly. Apparently somewhere out there some shop has a mountain of rolls of vinyl with 3 or 4 feet left on them that they're begging people to come get.
  4. New 4x8 sign

    Ummm..the paint I mentioned is oil based. Again, try Tubelite or Advanced Plastics in Memphis. Do you actually have a sign shop? If you do and you've live in the town your whole life where did you learn the sign business? What suppliers were you using when you were working wherever you...
  5. New 4x8 sign

    Not trying to bust your chops or anything but I've been to Jonesboro, it's not exactly a small town. There are 33 sign shops listed in the Yellow Pages.....where are they getting their materials? Can you just buy a couple of sheets of coro from them? If they've got white the stuff paints...
  6. New 4x8 sign

    You're only an hour out of Memphis and you don't have a supplier who delivers? Have you checked with Tubelite in Memphis?
  7. Why you should never second guess what you already know.................

    Gino, love you man but there's got to be a different issue here. How friggin' cold is it in the building that the misted RT2 froze when it hit the glass? If the glass is that dang cold what difference is it going to make sticking it on the inside? How much of a temp difference is there...
  8. banner hemming with tape

    Like they said above the key for me has been drawing a line 2" up on the banner, applying the tape to that line, and then folding the material over that. You might still get a crease this way but it will be on the back so it's not seen.
  9. Thank you Cricket Plotter forums!

    It was never really a problem before this year, a few call here and there but not a big deal. Apparently there was one hell of a sale on these things this year somewhere because every stay at home mom seems to have one.
  10. Thank you Cricket Plotter forums!

    I don't know where to find it and I'm not about to go looking for it but EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. since Christmas I've gotten a walk-in or a phone call from some nice lady who got a Cricket plotter for Christmas and is going in the sign/monogram/sticker business but "nothing that would compete with a...
  11. business cards

    Google must be broken. Try zoo printing or ecolor.cc
  12. Guitar Pick Shaped Plexiglass

    Polycarbonate and a jigsaw.
  13. How wind resistant are mesh banners?

    What Mosh said. Use webbing in the hems and NEVER tie a banner up by the corners. Tie your rope/cable between the two points then tie your banner to that. I'd use grommets every two feet and just zip tie it to the cable. Another option, if you're having the webbing/hemming done have them...
  14. MY Leftie-Rightie/401K program

    Went to high school with a guy who pitched left and right. Rules said he couldn't change gloves on the mound so they had a glove made for him with two thumbs and two pockets so he could pitch whichever way was best against the batter he was facing.
  15. Southern Sign Expo...Interest?

    Good luck, and I mean that. There's a world of work involved in putting together even a small industry show. The problem I've seen others run into is getting actual commitments from suppliers and manufacturers to do it. Companies don't like to spend the money to send a staff, ship displays...
  16. cutting 6 color design

    If you insist on doing cut vinyl do the black as a solid layer and put the other colors over it. If you just cut the black lines even the slightest shrinkage in the vinyl colors over time will leave horrible looking white spaces.
  17. Wow, this is one job I could never do!

    Were you worried nobody would notice it unless you put it in giant letters?
  18. Wow, this is one job I could never do!

    The video is a little hard to follow but this shows they build them the same way a tower crane goes up....the tower assembles itself a section at a time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KvjwdXA89w They'll also do them with helicopters lifting 50' sections at a time. Talked to a guy one time...
  19. Wrap a RC Truck

    Yeah, I lettered a trailer years ago for a guy who said he'd spent more on his RC trucks than it would have cost him to buy an actual race truck. said he was glad he didn't get into RC planes or he'd have "spent real money"
