I can tell you this...Alcohol and Adhesive Remover does NOTHING. And I tried the laminate thing, no success there either.

Yea, lesson learned. I've got 20 mins in it and MAYBE have 1/3 of it done. I'm ripping that stuff off from now on. A little "weathered" look would be fine in comparison to this.

I sold this guy a sign probably a year or two ago, and I left the material covering on the back of it. Now he wants something on the back, and I quoted the job w/o looking at the back of the sign. Is there anyway I can do something other than sit here picking at this thing for a day to get...

My favorite was when Verizon bashed the iPhone for two years saying how terrible it was, then started carrying it. Open mouth, insert foot.

I love these topics! I do have to vote that the taking a gif off of their "website" and changing the file name to "EPS" is my favorite. I quoted a job for a place right next door. They said their logo is on the website, I go there, and it's TEENY. So I quoted the artwork re-creation (By...

Loved it.

I quote something that size at $5/sq ft but generally it includes the artwork.. If I really want it, or I'm bidding against someone on it, I may go as low as $4/sq ft, but then I'd tack on some artwork costs (I sub my artwork out).

So would I basically just ask them for an approx price, and then if they approve, mail this to them for color matching, etc?

Had a customer bring these in to me. He said that they need like 10 of them. It's a big place with probably a couple hundred rooms in it. They have braille on them and the name mounts on a little sliding piece that comes out from the side. He said some of them are double stacked, and you can...

I built a 10X10X10 shed last year on this weekend. Best move I ever did. I had about $1,100 in it, it was a kit from Lowes. I haven't ever had to rent a storage unit, and it's right in my back yard. I did the math and if it only lasts three more months, I've broken even w/ renting a storage...

I thought my class was one of the last ones, at least that they uploaded pictures, etc, up to their website from, and that was AT LEAST three years ago. I don't remember for sure when it was though. That's a thing of the past though. I think it kinda tanked after Jody & Sergio left. I know...

Last time I needed it I thought it was on BOTW, but maybe that was just the 4X4 part.

This just made my day.:clapping:

Yep, at least you can go out to lunch on what you didn't discount him or something, and get a little something good out of the scenario!

I once had a guy that came in a few times, and always ordered these reprints of old pictures that I had to scan in, clean up, and print on special material that I ordered just for his orders. I didn't have to order a ton of it, it was only 10 yards or so, but I never charged him for it either...

Cell phone mergers only make things better if you ask me. There used to be 100's of little town company's when they first started, and you'd drop calls all the time. Granted, not as many people had phones, and coverage in general wasn't as good, but generally, each time one merges, you get...

Gotta help a friend move on Saturday, then planning on just laying low the next two days and hanging w/ the family. Might get out the quad and do some riding if it's nice weather.

I had a guy get on his motorcycle and drive here from 30 minutes away yesterday because he didn't know how to email or fax, or even text me a picture of his business card. The guy is probably 40, and has his own business, and he's legit. He gets here, it's all in Arial Black. So, a CD would...

I think a lot of us play out this scenario in our heads. Owning your own shop sucks, so does the responsibility. It'd be nice to split that responsibility w/ someone. But like so many others have said, it's a gamble, and normally it doesn't end well. That being said, sometimes big risks have...

Somethin tells me my bathroom scale isn't gonna be that precise.
