  1. panel saw or track saw

    We have a Safety Speedcut panel saw, one of the best tools in the shop. Only thing I'd change is the usual, wish I'd gone bigger with the 60"
  2. Mesh banners tearing in wind

    Taped seams on any long term banner subjected to the wind are iffy at best. For long term mesh banners we have webbing sewn into the edges. Installing for other means you are only reaponsible for the quality of the install not the durability of the materials.
  3. tool suppliers???

    I usually order "consumable" tools like squeeges, tapes, knives with an order that doesn't meet the minimum for shipping.
  4. Not to contribute to that mess being created in another thread

    "I dont claim to know what the Russian people are like or life in Russia based off the news i see on television. My guess is Russian people are alot like we are." I have found some really cool videos from youtubers who post short videos about their daily life and friends/family in Russia among...
  5. Think it's too subtle? LOL.

    I also prefer to use a less intenese color for the chisel, more like a real shadow. But I also hate names/slogans that are too cute or border on offensive.
  6. 16' In-ground Road Sign

    Wow, hard to compete with quality like that :roflmao:. So what were those made with?
  7. 16' In-ground Road Sign

    First, you are going to be told that you should check with zoning, if applicable. Second there are formulas for figuring post/foot based on size of the sign/wind load. That being said Ii wouldn't use 4x4 wood for this. I would use either 6"x6" or 4x4 steel. I'd use the Option C. But I might...
  8. SEG Frames and Prints

    We used this place for replacement SEG prints. Don't know if they do frames also. https://websigncenter.com/
  9. Odd question for time & material

    Since you were able to work on other things while babysitting the board I wouldn't charge 4 hours. maybe charge about the cost of the lettering for the removal and then charge the cost of the new lettering. And explain that it should have cost more but you appreciate their business and spend a...
  10. Here's an absolute new one for me, after 51 years.............................................

    I would have handled it the same way. Some people are just wacko.
  11. Shop charge for laminating customer supplied lam.

    Nope. Once it's clear he is becoming a competitor and not a customer I'm done. Also I wouldn't do a job like that (except for a friend). Using client supplied lam on their print? What happens if you mess it up, or the lam is crap, or in 6 months it fails because the materials are incompatable...
  12. This worries me more than Russia...

    Agree, if it weren't for Ukraine this would be front and center
  13. Cold-weather silicone for exterior Gemini/stud installs?

    A good alternative is to mount the letters on rails painted to match the wall. Then it can be mounted with the screws used to assemble those wall
  14. 5’ x 10’ 6mm ACM availability

    We sometimes make these on a 1"x1" aluminum tube frame with molding.
  15. Cold-weather silicone for exterior Gemini/stud installs?

    Corrugated steel is a special situation. It sucks to drill and is hard to get the pattern done properly, often requires extra reaming. And its a thin surface so not as secure as masonry, though the studs do hold well if the hole isn't reamed out. We have actually done these with nuts on the...
  16. Cold-weather silicone for exterior Gemini/stud installs?

    For letters that large and heavy I would add some extra studs. In a solid wall with long studs they wouldn't move much anyhow. Any decent adhesive should work. Just be sure to tell them to blow out the holes after drilling.
  17. is My gerber LE dead? Cant print anymore, video inside.

    I don't remember exactly. But disconnecting a data cord doesn't affect power. Also you can try clearing your spooler cache. If you search for Edge problesm on Signs101 therr are many threads that may have the answer
  18. Client Error wants Warranty

    Tell him you will do the repair after the dealer repaints if for free
  19. is My gerber LE dead? Cant print anymore, video inside.

    Did you disconnect from computer and reconnect? I remember something about that clearing similar issues
