we cut directly through coreldraw, but honestly I have no idea how. our tech guy figured it out. for printing, we use rasterlink, which came with our mimaki.

I need to call them. Thank you for sharing a vendor based in the US. I've ordered from silkcards, and was VERY disappointed they lied to me about where they were manufactured. I try to be as Made in America as possible. Also, bonus, they are only 45 minutes from me!

I like how no one has acknowledged your suggestion. I don't partake in these kinds of recreational activities, but my entrepreneurial side is soooo interested in learning how to cultivate pot. I really wish I had these cabinets and some seeds!

I have the opposite problem this week. A new client called me about coming out for a coming soon site sign. "A nice sign with wood posts and a 3x5 panel." I ask about their budget before rushing out the door. This is something I do with everyone lately. Their budget, installed, is about $350...

do you have an account with harbor sales? i got one from them, and their shipping is usually free.

Are you painting this? If so, i've had really good results painting a few layers and then sanding them down. I haven't tried cracked paint, but that is because when paint is cracked, it starts peeling. i don't want my signs to peel. After you've sanded it down a little bit, you can use a stain...

I've always wanted an old UPS truck, but once UPS is done with them, they get stripped and destroyed :(

We rarely give artwork files out without a fee. And I if am giving someone something without a fee, its not going to be particularly useable. But, I also don't often charge for layouts, i just like making things look good. If you want to use it else where, you gotta pay.

I asked more because I actually didn't want to do the permits.. the dude wanted me to go to council meeting to fight for an ugly non-conforming sign. After I sent a quote with a nicer, conforming sign, and J Hill's suggestion of "permit acquisition fee, city permit fees billed at cost" and...

I have Discount Labels' price guide. If I'm doing a small run, I try to make sure that I'm at least double the piece price of their smallest run with similar specs. I also don't do large runs in house because it is WAY more economical to have someone who is set up to labels produce them.

ha. yeah, I just looked at that again when I searched "permits." I think just writing "permit acquisition fee" is all that is needed, along with "evening meetings additional fee." thank you.

I need to quote someone for getting all the permits for a job, but I'm doing a terrible job trying to write up what I'm doing for that fee. Would anyone be willing to share their description of "permitting"? Please? Thank you!

fair warning.... you are going to be blasted for using calendared vinyl on a vehicle.

Does anyone have a policy that they must provide a certain file type? I'm fighting with a stupid photoshop file that I'm quite positive was never set up correctly. They also gave me a PNG file, which I really haven't noticed to be very "portable" in Corel. Honestly, I can't remember anyone...

Hey, but I see in your signature you're 6+ months without a cigarette! Good job, I just passed 9 months the other day. Its an unbelievably good feeling to know you are free of that crap. :)

You could also use velcro, but of course there will always be the loops on the first surface.

anyone else?

So I guess there really is only one place to get them. I really don't like buying things retail from my competitor, but I guess that is just the way it goes.

I'm looking to see if there are any other suppliers for this exact real estate post. This is not a wholesale supplier, and I'm sure they do not actually manufacture these posts. Do you know where else I can get it from?

Yep.
