  1. Unusual (maybe) mounting options

    Carved wood? Hope they are real solid and mounted well. I think you have the right idea for mounting but doubt you will find them premade.
  2. Attaching Printed Poster Paper to Painted Wood ?? Glue Type?

    Was going to mention the adhesive back paper, for next time. I would probably try a spray art mounting adhesive
  3. does anyone clear the edges of sign gold?

    When we first started doing SignGold jobs we used the Sealit pen. Now we apply a cast clear overlaminate over the whole thing with a 1/8" or so trap.
  4. Wondering if you might have a suggestion for static cling for unique application

    Gerber lexedge has a backer but is not adhesive back. There may be other manufacturers making something similar
  5. Outbid by competition - fight or flight?

    The bucket truck thing can work the other way too. Some big companies will send a bucket truck and to install a sign I can do with a pickup truck and ladder, so in those cases I have the advantage.
  6. Wondering if you might have a suggestion for static cling for unique application

    ok, now I get it, should have got a clue from your name. I use Gerber lexedge which is thin polycarbonate that is on a backer, maybe something like that is available for ecosolvent. .
  7. Wondering if you might have a suggestion for static cling for unique application

    Yeah, that sounds really odd, what are these used for? You apply epoxy resin to the face?!

  9. Gerber Envision 375

    I could use a back up, but not at that price. If you don't find a buyer let me know.
  10. Paint mask bridging

    I always pull as soon as I can, while the paint is "wet". If it requires multiple coats or it's gold leaf I often do a second very thin "bleed" cut. Apply first coat, pull the bleed cut. Apply second coat and pull the rest of mask.

    Bump
  12. Curved Carved HDU

    Still working on this project proposal. The fence is being made by a railing company that will fabricate if from aluminum. They are able to make a curved aluminum backer plate that matches the shape of the sign. So now I'm thinking that I can make this from a 1" carved panel with a 1" blank...
  13. Pole clamp sleeves

    The pan liner looks nice. I used roofing membrane
  14. I have a project where the client wants 2" depth Aluminium dimensionals studded for install no illumination.

    Channel letters or Gemini makes a sharp edge plastic letter
  15. Cursed customer

    Never had a customer like that but definitely a few jobs that were total fubars every step of the way, with plenty of blame all the way around, but as we know I had to take it all
  16. Challenges and being grateful

    Wow, I think I see one of the issues you've had- communicating
  17. What would you pay? What employees are worth.

    Why don't you talk to the owner about buying him out?
  18. Paper Work Orders

    Any system is only as good as the people who use it
  19. Business Names with no meaning

    There was a thread on here not long ago about a logo design in which the name and logo gave no clue what the business was about. It’s a trend I’ve noticed for a while. Maybe it started with the web, when a weird catchy name was more important that informing. Just this week I saw a new gun shop...
