  1. need tips for single person banner install onto a concrete wall.

    SDS's Rock. If you don't own one you should. Hammer Drills will sometimes cut it, but if it's precast concrete, there's just no comparison. To me it sounds like you really need to find someone to help you. 18' in the air without a spotter or just an extra set of hands sounds like a death wish -...

  13. Printing aluminum sign blanks with a flatbed

    Digital prints won't hold up for long term. Cut vinyl or screen print is the way to go on aluminum. That's a pretty big job to have handed back to you in a few years when the reds and yellows have faded. Even most screen inks don't last more than 2-4 years in direct sun. There are pretty...

    Yessir - it's fun to think of new jigs though.
  20. Magnet cutter

    That's a good point. You could cut the graphic out to size but square and then cut from the center of the square. Alot of overprocessing probably but it could work.
