Across the creek in back of us, there's a lot about 3.5 acres. A few years a go, some bum or whatever, set up a tent in the woods up on the hill. Was there all summer and into the winter. Came into work one morning and fire engines, medics and all kindsa sh!t all over the place. Found out a...

Didn't say you couldn't. Evidently some people like the convenience, but I'd rather hear the strength of the machine. Feel the solidarity of the doors and whatnot. I'd like to compare side by side before I lay out $2,500 on something. Unless you're buying strictly for cost, I think any big...

How do you run a business doing truck lettering and wraps on line ?? Would you hire a plumber on line ?? Would you hire a dentist on line ?? Would you hire an auto mechanic on line ?? Would you buy your refrigerator on line ?? You people who still think making trinkets like business cards...

Yes, but not constantly on every little item. My first 48" log cost me $68. Granted, that was the late 80's and I know things go up all the time. However, it generally goes up a little at a time. Last I checked, it was I think, $146 or so. So over about 30 years, it seems to go up on an...

There are all kinds of extenuating circumstances and I'm not about to judge someone really down on their luck. However, it doesn't seem feasible that they can make more than a few bucks an hour that way.

Placed an order for some application tape the other day and saw the invoice come through because my wife is out on medical leave, so I'm looking everything over. When did a 48" log of tape go up to $228.00 ?? This is R-Tape. I was upset when it reached $140. I knew it has gone up, but that...

Have nothing for ya on the printers, but thoughts and prayers out to you and your wife.

In just about any business/industry, most businesses will fizzle out within the first to second year for all kindsa reasons. No reflection on you or your business. As mentioned, if ya can make it 5 years, you're probably gonna make something of it. If you're foundering within your first year...

So, we've come a long way in over 300 years. Next week's lesson will be on "leading". Next month will be on "spelling" That will take a long time to discuss.

I used to wear fruit of the loom. Does that count ?? Copperplate and Playbill are good ones for y'all.

Watching a plotter cut, a printer print or just any mechanical machine work is just like watching money being made while you're printing it

How 'bout paisley ?? Maybe some mod dots for more definition ?? Just keep the colors in close approximation so as not to create a glazing appearance for the other mourners.

I think Pat was out drinking last night and had a few too many and decided to test out his keyboard when he got home. Sheesh, there's always gonna be good ones and bad ones regardless or what era you're talking about, but most of what you said sounds like a buncha rubbish based upon looking...

Just think about it. All of these prints are either flatbed printed or roll to roll, but they still get laminated. Therefore, sintra is no better than any other substrate. Why not use the better suited all around substrate ?? I've been doing in-store signs for decades. Been using gator...

I just saw the photo................ You might wanna entertain the idea of gatorboard instead of sintra. Instead of a wooden frame, the sign itself would act as the frame and you could reinforce the corners with a bit larger piece. At the top, perhaps just a piece of wood around the perimeter...

So, here's one for you and it's neither technical or hypothetical. What or where lies your area of expertise ?? Just for future reference.

Magic.

gluing sintra to a wooden frame any suggestion? rtv? silicone? not sure what the correct adhesive would be _____________________ That was your original question. A simpleton question, not a simple question. You left so much sh!t out. That kinda question doesn't even deserve a well thought...

Met with a prospective customer yesterday morning. We looked at the building from the outside. He told me what he wants and we discussed many of the pitfalls, due to codes. He says, can you give an estimate ?? Now?? Yes. Nope. So, he shows me on his phone, the schematics and blueprints...
