  1. fasteners, channels, plastic trim.....

    Maybe later you can explain to me why Outwater has a dinosaur on all the catalogs.
  2. painting wooden sign posts

    Seems like a good time for Norm Abrams to chime in with his erroneous information.
  3. High End business cards $198 each anyone need 1000

    I looked at that ad and thought the price wasn't outrageous for a box of 1000 cards. Somehow I missed that part where you said $198 EACH.
  4. Design taken to another sign shop, should I say anything?

    Bill them, go ahead and accept the fact that they aren't going to pay the bill, sit back and decide if you want to take it to court or not. If you take it to small claims court be prepared for them not to show up so you'll win a default judgement. Ask the judge what in the hell good a default...
  5. painting wooden sign posts

    Drywall screws disappear in about 18 months.
  6. painting wooden sign posts

    Good lord, I agree with Mosh on something. I buy them soaking wet from Home Depot, let them dry for a day or so on a couple of sawhorses, prime them with Kilz and paint them the next day. The paint usually lasts 4-5 years, far longer than most of my real estate signs stay up. If they want a...
  7. This is just lame

    There are very, very few that aren't bad wraps. I had a customer supplied wrap to install that was done that way, all I could assume is that they didn't want to waste any of the 54" window perf. I can tell you that stripping that crap off a couple of years later must have sucked. The same...
  8. This month's business card

    Actually I started with white and black. I'm a non-conformist. Thanks for the font link. Nice, clean condensed FREE fonts are kind of hard to come by.
  9. This month's business card

    We burn through a box of business cards every 4-5 weeks. I try to do something different each time. After seeing a bunch of cards posted here and in SignCraft that were flat out Photoshopped to death I decided minimalist was the best plan for this month. Ordered them with a matte finish on...
  10. PhatWall's final logo

    You left out flames and diamond plate.
  11. What you think PROS?

    Needs some serious kerning between the AW and between VA Is the first A italicized? Shouldn't be. Why a brown and white leaf for a lawn care company? If nothing else at least make the leaf look green and alive. Also, posting the design on a black background isn't a real good idea.
  12. fasteners, channels, plastic trim.....

    I'm guessing Outwater or Hangups. If you can't find it in one of those you probably don't need it.
  13. Legal advice, somebody ripped off my design.

    I think you guys should all chip in and hire a lawyer to solve this once and for all.
  14. How to repair PVC (Komacell)

    Ditto on the spot filler.
  15. Legal advice, somebody ripped off my design.

    ...and I still say that without seeing your design and the ripped off design nobody here can actually say whether you were ripped off or not.
  16. Legal advice, somebody ripped off my design.

    No. Christians make up 32% of the human race. Personally I do $18,000 - $20,000 a year with churches. I've never had one screw me over, very rarely do I have any problems, and I don't get asked for a church discount more than a couple of times a year. All in all they've been VERY good...
  17. what is it worth

    I would like to point out that this is EXACTLY what Dan meant when he said nobody ever listens. You're just trying to sell yourself on this deal. You're still talking about investing money in a failed business that you don't have the skill set to save. But, if you're just looking for someone...
  18. Getting out of the Screenprinting industry :(

    I bought some stuff from a screen printing shop that was closing that literally had THOUSANDS of tubs of ink. 90% of them were pre-mixed colors leftover from large runs. They'd advertised for months trying to give the stuff away and nobody would take any of it. The day I picked up my stuff...
  19. Over designing signs

    So, a question came up this morning at the shop about stopping the design process. Case in point...I had a lady come in this morning for Vacation Bible School banners. They are going with a western theme. Being a small church (and to my delight spending money frugally) she didn't want to pay...
  20. 50% or 1/2 off?

    Sign makers should never, as in ever, say never.
