  1. Help identify this thing

    Spindle rotator off of a parabolic drum scanner.
  2. Blanket lien

    Not unbelievable, the first bank was just making sure they'd covered their *** in the case of a default. That should have been disclosed in the paperwork on the loan, typically on one of those 50 pages of stuff they slide over to you and tell you to sign that nobody ever reads.
  3. Coroplast sheets

    Two 4x8 sheets butted together. Don't overthink it....it's the cheapest stuff they can get. It's not gonna be a masterpiece.
  4. Any FastSigns Owner here?

    Another thing to consider about going the franchise route is the resale value. Face it, the average sign shop owned by members here is worth little more than the resale value of the equipment. Few people are willing to shell out $150,000 for what amounts to some computer files and a customer...
  5. The expense of our machines and Christmas Cards

    So you're spending $500,000 on equipment and another $500,000 on supplies from a vendor and you don't even get a Christmas card? Even at a 5% profit margin you're still covering somebody's salary for the year. Next time you write a half million dollar check add a couple of hundred bucks to it...
  6. need supplier for 3' x4' .80 white reflective aluminum blanks

    Okay, I know the job is done and I know this isn't a layout thread but why is "5 MPH" the smallest thing on the sign? It should have been the biggest.
  7. Realtor sign storage rates?

    I've probably got 30 4x8 signs in storage right now for various real estate companies in town and a stack of 4x4 posts for them. Takes up virtually no floor space. I love having them in the shop so when they want one installed all they have to do is call me and tell me where to put it. If...
  8. How long will it last?

    When my boys went to daycare all their bottles had to have their name on them. I had labels printed on Orajet 3651 to stick on them. The bottles were run through the dishwasher almost daily for over a year....labels still looked perfect.
  9. goin to school for graphic design

    One big suggestion.....don't go to school for Graphic Design. Here's Newsweeks list of the five most useless degrees: Fine Arts Drama And Theater Arts Film, Video, and Photographic Arts Commercial Art and Graphic Design Architecture The field is over-saturated and under-appreciated. The...
  10. Crooks, Thevies and just bad people.

    that's an easy one....the stores can just cancel the gift cards.
  11. Our Last Day On Earth!

    How do you know the Illuminati isn't comprised of the descendents of the Mayans?
  12. Our Last Day On Earth!

    Mayans didn't live in Japan. Duh.
  13. Be careful sharing your photos online....

    That's not at all what they're proposing. They are telling you straight up that the cost of using their FREE STORAGE, and their FREE SOFTWARE, and their FREE BANDWIDTH, and their FREE ACCESS is that they are going to let anyone willing to pay them use your pictures. If you want to use their...
  14. Golden Eagle snatches kid.

    I'm just wondering what an Imperial Eagle from Czechoslovakia is doing in Canada.
  15. My first Camo Pattern

    Far too repetitive. You put that down the side of a vehicle and it's gonna look like tiger stripes.
  16. Radio Shack......................

    It? IT?! Why's the gentleman now an "IT"? Some people are so full of hate this holiday season. You need to watch "A Charlie Brown Christmas". The kid made do with a stick for a tree and he liked it.
  17. Radio Shack......................

    Damn first world problems. I can already tell you how this is going to work out. You're going to get ignored in the hopes you just go away like most other people will. When you don't go away and actually get him on the phone he will get all the information and tell you he'll have to look into...
  18. Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays?

    Most of my Jewish friends say Merry Christmas and both my muslim friends have Christmas lights on their houses. Some people choose to acknowledge December 25th as the celebration of the birth of Christ, some choose to acknowledge it as just a day set aside to give gifts to loved ones without...
  19. Spent last weekend out of this world

    That's a very, very sad statement.
  20. Suggestions for making a lifesize stand up?
