  1. gothic type of font

    Thanks for both responses. I had a dozen Lucida variants but not that one. Here is how it was originally presented to us.
  2. So I am on vacation in Florida......

    From the title I was looking forward to fishing pics.
  3. gothic type of font

    TIA, looking for the exact match.
  4. heat pressing shirts using siser easyweed vinyl, what printers are good for images

    Outside of large format dyesub applications inkjet or laser transfers are pretty low quality IMO and a pretty expensive route to go. If you want to do full color transfers then there are vinyls that you can print on for heatpress application. Stahls sells this product blank and custom printed.
  5. Automated Merrow Machine, Pretty cool

    It looks like this thing can do about 3000 emblem edges in an 8 hour day. That is 3 times what a skilled operator can do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99Lm8PEXoxw
  6. Why do people try to haggle with sign shops?

    It isn't just sign shops. I worked with a guy that said he argued over everything he purchased. I was in a Taco Bell with him when he haggled over the price. The funny thing was he got a discount! This really strikes me today as we have a guy who has a last minute order and when I give him a...
  7. What is the most used size of a vinyl banner please?

    3x5 would work for for what you want to do.
  8. How to politely ask for deposit before any work is started?

    For us new customers pay 100% up front no matter what the price is, returning pay 50%. Very well established customers are allowed to order without a deposit up to $500, after that a deposit is required of 50%. All jobs are 100% payment on delivery, no credit. At the conclusion of the...
  9. What's your planned schedule for the 4th?

    We left early yesterday, take today off, back at work on Fri/Sat and probably some on Sunday. We have about 5 weeks of work piled up.
  10. Decals on beer mugs?

    I agree but I can't talk the customer out of it. He already supplied the mugs.
  11. Decals on beer mugs?

    Our local guy doesn't do this any more. It will be on a clear mug, will it be readable? Do you have a picture of an application like this? This will be for a commercial operation and they have been warned on the care of the decals.
  12. Decals on beer mugs?

    We have a job to put decals on beer mugs. The logo isn't a problem since it will be one solid cut piece. On the other side we need to put lettering. These are customer supplied. I have checked with several of our vendors and have not found a good way to do this. I was thinking of a clear decal...
  13. Madeira Thread

    Our storage is a sunglasses holder from Long's Drugs when they went out of business. It has 2 rotating columns with plastic spines that stick out to hold the glasses, er thread.
  14. Where do I start

    When we get something like this we ask for the original artwork. When we are told it is not available, we pass. Funny thing about that. An Angel :peace!: (closest thing to an angel here!) comes from the sky and the original art, once thought to be lost, suddenly appears. We only take...
  15. Almost like Eras but not quite.

    That looks pretty good to me, thanks.
  16. Almost like Eras but not quite.

    The G in Eras isn't the same.
  17. Another Californian joined the forum

    Fresno or Bakersfield. Maybe Modesto or Visalia though if you like a lot of flies. Welcome from Southern California, Poker Capital of the World!
  18. Would you sue?

    So far we have been able to defend our Trademarked clothing with help from the sites that were listed them, Ebay, CafePress and Zazzle. We did have one offender that voluntarily pulled the product when he came in and saw our TM registration hanging on the wall. So far no lawsuits but we are...
  19. Customer Pickup area.

    We are in the same boat. We have 8 foot racks from U Line but those are now full and we have stuff stacked up. The real problem seems to be customers that take forever to pick up their 'rush' job. Fortunately, most of these are paid in full ahead of time.
  20. Rent a space near competitor??

    When we opened there were 2 across the street and 2 a block away doing the same thing. Within a half mile there were 8 of us. Today there are 5.
