You know what - I apologize. I'm having a rough day and taking it out on the wrong people... To answer your questions. 1. Yes, you will need to print it with solvent or eco-sol inks. You will need to lam it with material matching lam. 2. Material-wise, I'd use either Clear Focus or the...

Ummm...OK. This is gonna sound bad, but if you don't know enough about digital printing to knwo that if you are putting something outdoors it should be solvent, and if you dont' know about window perf....Ummm.... Gary

I can see where this would be great for 1 or two man shops (like ours). That being said, while I rarely if ever agree with Mosh, I think i could fabricate one of these on my own for a whole lot less than $5k. Gary

My rule of thumb for pricing is usually the following formula - 2(materials)+Hrs(shop rate)+Hrs(design rate)+Hrs(install rate)+Possible PITA Fee = Final price. Gary

I have pretty much stayed away from interacting with this assclown, but this last post I simply couldn't ignore. So, as my grandad used to say "Here's the straight edge, boy". Mosh, people are mean to you because you are one of those people who either as a) no ability to interact with...

Our shop rate is $65/hr - and since there are only two of us, that $65/hr applies to design as well. Gary

You missed your mask, gun, and stick-up note :) Gary

For what you are talking about, why not just BUY yellow 4mil coro. We charge $7/sf for 1 color vinyl on 4mil coro. So, on a 4'x8', that's $224.00. That doesn't include design time. Gary

Umm....4mil or 10mil coro? If 4mill, then you are KILLING at the price. Good for you! Gary

It's also worth thinking about with a piece that long, breaking into two peices and seaming it. Lexan isn't exactly the most rigid material out there.... Gary

Something that size, I would pull the face - just for ease of vinyl removal. Gary

Honestly? Because it is ugly. The colors grab attention, but they don't communicate or play together well. The design is not too good either. Just too much happening. Personally, I would ditch the camo. Got to sime type of textured, or even shape based background. You can get some really...

I have a 9 year old son, and when I have to go out of town for 2 or 3 days to wine and dine clients I miss him more than I ever thought I could miss anything. He runs into me like a little freight train when I come home - there is no way I could leave him for months or years at a time. THANK...

This suggestion may be TOTALLY off course, but if the customer has the budget for it, you may want to suggest a digital solution. You can fabricate the monitor housings to look industrial/rough, and then install LCD monitors driven by a solid back-end system. This would give an...

Well, it really depends on their budget. My though would be to use a sawed off u-channel and then make two sign faces (assumign thsi is double sided) our of max-metal. Cheap, efficient, and it will look nice. Gary

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!! Gary

If that's the case, then your customer is an idiot :) Which is nothing new in this biz!!! Gary

What about something like this?

Pro Wraps is right on this one. And if you go into this with the attitude of "oh, how hard can it be" you are in for a world of hurt. Getting basic training from a friend is one thing. Installation issues are only about 30% of the battle. Hell, with some practice you can train a monkey to...
