Why are they required to be .080"?
8-10 years is a very tall order for any digital print. I wouldn't trust it if they are wanting them warrantied.
Putting an 1/8" piece of acrylic in front of it can cause problems of cr@p getting in-between, or condensation.
At my last job, we routinely...
If you're in Tracy, CA and this is going on a sign (like a backlit cabinet) or you are making a sign for a building or property, and it's over 500 bucks, you need to have a California contractors license.
I see one minor flaw with the copyright release, by giving the client ALL RIGHTS, the designer is inadvertently giving up his right of promotion. A designer should ALWAYS keep his rights of promotion (entering the work in competitions, magazine articles, portfolios, marketing materials) unless...
From the States website:
"C-61 - Limited Specialty - No study guide available (No trade exam required)"

How many times have we said a person interested in doing this should get trained on the job?
2 years in a full service shop can be quite a bit of training for the right person.
I agree with a lot of what is being said about being careful what to buy, saving cash, requiring yourself to being...

Obviously a rectangle is easy enough to figure out...
I deal with calculating square footages all the time, most are a combination of squares, rectangles circles ovals and type. With ascenders and descenders I have to draw the overall size... yes, I can figure it out on paper... or look over...
