  1. X Banner Stands...Cheap?

    kevSign and SignStudent gave you a MUCH better option. We threw away a box of the ones you posted. Even a light breeze had them on the ground, even indoors. Plus, that back leg kept kicking out. Have you considered doing retractable stands? http://camdisplays.com/html/roll_ups.html...
  2. Want to sandblast signs

    Do the math first. The honest math (not that math people use when justifying buying a printer). Unless you're selling the bejesus out of some sandblasted signs you're gonna have a hard time justifying the expense. The few I do I simply design, mask, and take to a local commercial sandblaster...
  3. No Parking sign

    What everyone else said.....contact the city and find out what the requirements are to have someone towed. Then call a towing company and find one who will tow at your demand and impound the cars and make the car owner pay all the fees. Then go tell the computer shop that you're going to start...
  4. Gliding....

    Yeah, but does Mosh know the way to *** YOU BRADSTER, CA?
  5. Bass Pro Shops lawsuit with local business story..

    Yeah, I'd say Bass Pro Shops is tossing it's weight around there.....and it's considerable weight. They can lean on a little mom & pop shop long enough to put them under if they want to. Drag is out in court for a couple of years, get an injunction to stop them from selling anything until the...
  6. Gliding....

    Leave you broke and trying to sell your body at the airport for another jump? You're gonna be alright Mosh. Watch a couple more Guy on a Buffalo videos and take your kids to do something ridiculous. Focus on the people who make you happy, you've got to cull the others.
  7. DIY Papercraft app for iPad

    Yeah, that's my problem. I'll have to steal my wifes iPad. Droid version is supposed to be available in March.
  8. DIY Papercraft app for iPad

    http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2013/01/3d-printing-with-foldify/ I think the rest of my day just got shot. Pre-made papercraft templates that you color on screen, print, and assemble.
  9. My Supermodel Daughter

    ..and the brownie.
  10. My Supermodel Daughter

    I could break down the meaning behind the old guy giving you a brownie and a bottle of cheap wine but I'd get kicked out by Fred.
  11. Do it yourself chrome wrap material

    You use Aunt Jemima on the rubber window trim and side moldings for better adhesion.
  12. Do it yourself chrome wrap material

    Wasn't my wrap. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess Butter Flavored Crisco.
  13. Do it yourself chrome wrap material

    Who knew that every grocery store in America carried chrome wrapping materials?! A few creases and wrinkles to work out and a little trimming to do but for $2.47 a roll even Cheap Vehicle Wraps can't compete.
  14. My Supermodel Daughter

    Yes it is.
  15. Super fine letters NOT made of vinyl..

    I remember when the art supply store I was working for had me throw THOUSANDS of sheets of the stuff in the dumpster, along with hundreds of the storage/display cabinets because computer typesetting had killed the market.
  16. Super fine letters NOT made of vinyl..

    The museum here uses is simply a laser print on 3-M matte clear decals. The decal practically disappears when it's mounted. They print rectangles, mount them, and unless you get the light at just the right angle you can't tell it's there. I use them all the time for putting sponsor logos on...
  17. 4x4' rent signs

    John get the boot or just put on double secret probation?
  18. 4x4' rent signs

    Material cost per 4x4 sign (metal, vinyl, tape).....$55 Sign 1.....$55 plus one hour labor = $120. Profit - $144 Sign 2.....$110 plus 1-1/2 hour labor = $200 Profit - $184 I think you're offering too large a discount on the second sign. You could offer him 10 mil coro but that's really...
  19. Crease in sandblast

    Glass etch vinyl....hit it with the heat gun and pray. Sometimes it will settle out, usually it means recutting it.
  20. Ready for a printer

    If your main focus is banners you don't need a printer. You can buy them wholesale, with finished edges and grommets for under $1 psf. You'll have to do about 75,000 sf of banners before you've justified the cost. Just my 2¢ worth of opinion (backed up by simple mathematics.)
