  4. New Monument Coming

    What part did you have to stick with? What is edge acrylic on this application? That looks more like push thru to me... Is it double or single sided, what does the side view look like. The structure holding the panel looks too heavy. Looks like it would take Gargantua to pull the panel...

  7. Outsourcing signage

    I noticed you are not a state licensed contractor (C-45 or D-61) Even if your installer is, you are the company contracting and taking all the risk. The client does not have to pay you, you can get fined. I'm not saying don't do it... ...just saying know what you are risking and...
  8. My hidden message behind the taillight in customers truck..

    So sorry for your loss... I miss my grandmother fierce and she passed away 40 years ago. As sweet as the memorial to your grandmother is and the emotional release you got from it, unless you knew that client really well, it would pi$$ me off if I found that on my car if I wasn't asked, though...

  10. Our newly launched website

    I dig the look and good work on it but... The portfolio on the home page is messy... if I click on a pic, it takes me to individual images, when I hit the next image, the size changes, some of them take up two screens... making it frustrating to click for the next image... I know you have a...

  12. Customer starting to grate on my nerves

    Is the website going to be re-done? I know it's a template but it looks awfully modern. What does their marketing and old logo look like. When clients start using words like "traditional" "concept" "artistic" and "natural/organic" What does that even mean.... to them. I usually start...

    Takes out the skinning knife.... Ummm no, let's not do that....
  14. pricing for a menu board

    Menu's can be a drag to layout, even for someone with experience... A simple layout (meaning few items) with the going back and forth with the client. 1-1.5: hours: 100-150 bucks A complicated menu: 1.5-3: 150-300 bucks Printing/Laminating: Laminate because they may clean it with HD...
  15. pricing for a menu board

    I'm guessing the customer already has the panel ready to go, or are you supplying that?
  16. Interpretive Signs, Outdoor Kiosks

    Not an easy question to answer.... Are you familiar with the designers and manufacturers of these projects? Are you getting plans already done (including copywriting) and you just manufacture and install? Or is it a complete design/build? Are these NPS projects? Do you understand...

    What kind of work are you doing that requires one?
  18. What type of vinyl is this on these sign panels?

    for sure it ain't black vinyl...
  19. Park Street.

    First thing I noticed was the conduit.. if I had to drive past it, it would drive me crazy, but, still a beautiful sign... very creative. I'm sure the client is stoked - they should be.
