  1. Stop the Skateboarders

    I still have my Sims Lonnie Toft 10.0 with Krypto's AND a one-off ALVA PIG (4 trucks, 8 wheels) out in the garage from back in the day. This is from before Old School was even an infant term.
  2. Stop the Skateboarders

    Build a bowl.
  3. Pay Your Bills.

    Thanks for posting! I have had a couple I had to go all Wild West on myself.
  4. I think I was visited by a crook!!!!

    He didnt have a littlle heat wrapped up in that shirt?
  5. painting aluminum extrusion

    Many NAPA's carry etching primer in both rattle can and quart. Otherwise lookup a local automotive paint supplier.
  6. Update on Arlo

    John L in Pennsylvania (and family) are praying hard for Dave!
  7. Billboard Tri-Visions

    Last one we did, the old vinyl was at least a 1/4" thick.. maybe 30 layers. We didnt print it so I really don't know what kind of vinyl it was. Don't get your hand in there with the power on. Those things grab pretty good.
  8. Check This Sign...

    u so nasty
  9. Too many sign shops!!

    If Shop #4 moved into Shop #6's location, I would dig that.
  10. Channel Letter Cleanup

    Sorry I didnt mention. But actually we have taken down some 9' tall Sears channel letters that had a wood composite back and the metal side returns were wrapped around it. The signs were originally made by a major, national, electric sign company.. I can only guess, maybe back in the 70's. I...
  11. Channel Letter Cleanup

    Jamie, Work a relationship with a shop that does electric and set a finders fee for the repair (probably will turn into replacement) work. We have several local shops that we do this with. I would recommend typing up a single page agreement that states your expected percentage or fee, and...
  12. Surgery Early in the Morning

    Arlo, Wishing you the best of luck and praying hard for you to heal quickly and move on along. Getting up afterwards gets you closer to the door so maybe that aint a bad thing. Get er done and let us know when you are back home again.
  13. Legal advice, somebody ripped off my design.

    Not to stir the pot but, I think YOU were being called "Mr. PhD in law".
  14. What size edge cap do I use for 4mm coroplast

    HAHAHAHHA!!!! Thats awesome. Welcome aboard.
  15. Ratchet strap supplier(s)?

    1-800-474-7846 ask for Grady Irvin (or sales department). They are more than a buck a strap, though Grady will be your best price. But don't give your work away! Not everyone is willing or able to do what we do especially if you do hi-rise work.
  16. How long have you been in the Sign Business?

    1983. I started with nothing and have most of it left.
  17. wind load calculation

    I see. Maybe go on up.... How about asking the mayor (in writing is always best because they are always wondering who else got a copy) if maybe he/she could ask the reviewer for a little input on your behalf, or maybe even an example of a similarly simple, approved installation. You're not...
  18. wind load calculation

    Kstompaint - It could be worse. As our extreme example... we pulled a county permit for a customer that wanted to install an 18" wall-mounted satellite dish for a weather reciever. The drawings and red tape were unreal for a job as miniscule as this. It required engineer stamps, wind load, 2...
  19. The Addams Family

    Maybe search the AF pinball graphics but I doubt the permission would extend to that anyway.
  20. Okay, tell me why this installation won't work.

    I wouldnt use a PVC pipe filled with concrete either. But, in regards to filling a pipe with concrete... you cut the tip off of an old traffic cone and you use it like a funnel.
