I think a company that spends $2,000 on a branding project will do it more good for future business than spending the same amount on a metal cabinet with a plastic face that lights up at night or a routed foam sign outside on the wall. The branding will help the company decide on what will work...

So kids under 18 and running up to you. Are these kids 7 or 8 years old. Maybe they just watch PawPatrol all day and he just needs a place to keep his kids during the day.

I think the one thing that we all wish for in business is how to turn a buck. Tex has that trait. Don’t know if he inherited the gift or just picked it up though observation or necessity. And 30 years ago when signpainters were faced by the vinyl machine they had to adapt. But they had the trait...

So Tex does not know what f’ing vinyl to put on a trailer to wrap, no shop, no printer but can give retirement planning advice. Glad I won’t be around when Tex starts telling about his 40 years in the business. Or, Tex wants to move to Redding, PA and buy Wise Signs.

Kansas can get some high winds, Dorothy, like Gino said 40"deep with two bags each hole to be safe. Some say just use a heavy pry bar and tamp dirt down good all the way around posts in the holes if it is temporary.

Walnut will hold up outside under an awning out of the sun and rain, if you apply the right finish. Good stains, either a Spar varnish mixed with 100% tung oil (about 5 coats, sanding between coats). Or an AwlGrip 2 part mix clear (marine finish, about 3 coats) over the stain after good and dry...

Use to see her as a teenager on America Bandstand, Shindig, Hullabaloo, Ed Sullivan and later on MTV with Pink Cadillac, I will miss her presence. Alexa played her all day for me.

How big is this screen you have to build for the city seal?

This must be going into an office environment. I would use a darker stain on the copy and leave the background as is and use good varnish, or two part clear over the entire thing. I prefer Tung oil over varnish finishes.

What program to do your layout are you using. Make a box of 18'x3' and then type your copy and adjust inside your box leaving the same amount of space top and bottom.

Tex, go to the dollar store and be cool.

Why didn't you take a picture of it in the dark..... in action ?? Is that your photograph ??

Looks like you answered your own question. Uneven rollers and slow speed. You need to find out how to adjust your rollers to be even all the way across. Try a flat stock 1/4" aluminum bar across your rollers and adjust down on the bar to try and get even.

Yea and don’t hire that young boy as your accountant!

Give Tex some slack Gino. He is hustling and working hard to learn the ropes. Pretty soon after he saves a little money he will mortgage the house, get a HP printer, laminator and a warehouse. Start to hire employees, come on here and complain about how they don't have the same mindset as his...

I use green edge acrylic in 1/4" thickness with polished edges using compound and polishing wheel. Has the look of glass and not plastic. Like was mentioned those cracks come from the corner, back to the hole. And you can polish the edges of polycarb, so you could stick with the thinner...

Over 40 years ago Spanjer Brothers use to sell wood letters. We would order those through the catalog and phone conversations and mailing of layouts. Then when you received the wooden letters you would prep them for gold leaf. These, depending on size might take up to a month or so to receive...

Why not paint the trailers.

I would use cast with no lamination, not calendar with lam. You want the thickness because that is what you are use to? Would it not be cheaper to buy a roll of cast vinyl than going with 365?
