If I call in the morning looking for a quote on standard items I expect a quote within a few hours. Anything completely out of the ordinary I'll look for it the next day. I try to get all of my customer quotes to them the same day, if there's a problem with it that keeps me from doing that...

No, fly paper actually sticks.

Avery vinyl might be fine, and they may have corrected the manufacturing flaws they had a few years ago. That does NOTHING to correct the fact that they ruined a whole lot of businesses, forced people to fight to get pennies on the dollar out of the "warranty", and essentially went with an...

I've used Bondo, fiberglass, caulk, some waterproof spot putty from the paint store, and Titebond 2. They all seemed to work identically for me. I use the Titebond 2 to seal the edges every time now just because it's the easiest for me to do. Any voids I fill with Bondo because it hardens in...

Oh, $20,000 worth, give or take a house payment. NEVER had the first bit of trouble with Nikkalite, I love the stuff, I recommend the stuff. I haven't heard of any failures so far but I may have to make a couple of recon visits this weekend.

NOOOOOOOOO! Dear Lord please don't let Nikkalite red reflective be failing.

What you've spent on equipment should have no bearing at all on your pricing. You shouldn't be buying equipment until you're subbing so much work out that buying will only increase your profits (something it seems 90% of sign people don't do)

Just tell him the quote you gave him was only valid on exactly what it was quoted on. This is a completely different deal now and will have to be requoted accordingly. If you decide to print it and sell it at your cost like the original quote said you'll end up screwing up a couple of prints...

Forget the Magic Sculpt and use Magic Smooth instead, it's about the consistency of snot and works out really smooth. Personally I'd use fiberglass resin.

Not an exact match but GeoSlab Serif is close if you don't find an exact match.

I've got a really long extension cord and a hydroelectric plant nearby.

Kindof. The plans right now are to be semi-opened while we remodel the shop. We'll talk to customers and we'll take orders but unless it's a rush job from a major customer (very unlikely to happen) then we'll be laying carpet and building walls.

Few ideas....

Can't.....I don't have access to a flux capacitor.

After getting ZERO Christmas cards from suppliers last year and getting miffed about it I'm going to take a different approach with mine this year. If I can get through drawing (tracing) and watercoloring the damn things I'm going to send out all of my shop cards and cookies the Monday after...

I know some....Tiki seems capable of naming every font ever created.

Feast of Fleash from Blambot Fonts.

Try changing the outline around the letters to white.

Okay, the more I've thought about it "Bulls**t" was the wrong word to use there...and after reading everyone else's opinions I can admit I was wrong. While I still maintain that we shouldn't have to have a special day to thank veterans Darlak and Gino made me realize that we do have to. It...
