  2. Just found this on my work table

    You can't fool me.......... that's your handwriting. You just spruced it up a bit to look like your daughter's. Cute :u rock:

    Go to around 30 seconds in............. This'll knock that dumb crap out and stick with you a lot longer.

    Simply amazing.................................... :thumb:
  5. Question How tough is HDU board?

    Don't use it all that much, but when we do, it's usually 2" stock. With your situation, I'd definitely back it with 3/4" MDO and make sure you seal the edges real-ly good. Fill the voids and putty the whole edge all the way around. Give it at least two top coats and give the edges a coat...
  6. Opinion Coronavirus Holding up LED suppliers

    I heard the same thing about the real conditions over there. Nothing at all like what we're being led to believe. The chinese government is censoring all communications going in and out of china with severe penalties, so most are being careful what leaks out. They have a very strict curfew...
  7. Need Help Drawings

    Years ago, people,would look through our photo albums to see what we could do..... and for ideas. While they were doing that, I would draw a sketch or two and show them my ideas for their sign. That setup worked every time. People love to see their venture develop right before their eyes...
  8. Clear coat gold leaf, before or after lettering?

    If it makes ya feel better.... and safer, than clear the gold, but I would clear the number & gold entirely, just so there's no edge. And give it two coats of clear.
  9. .020" Block out Polystyrene

    Forgot about this one. I talked to my distributor this morning and he said other than engraving material, you're gonna have a hard time finding that much uner 1/16". Maybe try a tradeshow display distributor with various kinds of display materials. He said the same thing, it's a really odd...
  10. Clear coat gold leaf, before or after lettering?

    Are you hand-painting the black number ?? If so, I would clear afterwards. If it's gonna be a vinyl number, I'd clear before the vinyl goes down.
  11. Frank Fellers, the Owner of Fellers Has started his own wrap shop doing wraps for $1,000

    Hey BooBoo...... how 'bout snitchin' some picinic baskets ??
  12. When you outsource, do you tell the customer?

    Pick just about anything you've said throughout this thread and it's all confrontational and back-pedaling after it's been pointed out to you. You seem to react, rather than act. As far as being a bully, I could use some very choice words for you, but then you'd be on my case about word usage...
  13. Frank Fellers, the Owner of Fellers Has started his own wrap shop doing wraps for $1,000

    Yep, he's certainly come a long way from the days of sewing banners in his uncle's garage to his distributor business and now a wrap shop. Oh... and a messy divorce. I'm not too keen on his coming into the sign industry, but everyone does it, eventually. When they came out with computers and...
  14. When you outsource, do you tell the customer?

    fresh..... your frustrations are heard and quite clear, but don't be putting words in my mouth. I can only comment on remarks made here. I don't know you from a door knob, so if you don't like my answers or accusations, just don't participate. I'm only responding to what you or anyone else...
  15. 10mm coroplast cut tool?

    You will get buggers from a jig saw to a small degree and that hand-held scroll saw, too. I had one of those and threw it out. Too much playing around for me. You do better with a very thin blade in a regular jig saw. However, I get nearly NO shredding from the scroll saw in any material.
  16. When you outsource, do you tell the customer?

    Now, you're just making sh!t up. You didn't mean that and you know it. Ya got caught making sh!t up and ya don't like the outcome, so you're backpedaling. Anyone can clearly see you were talking about ONE SIGN. As for sending jobs to FireSprint or other wholesalers, yeah, that's the way...
  17. .020" Block out Polystyrene

    I'm not doubting ya, but could you post a picture of that one ?? Put something aside of it for a reference, too. :thumb:
  18. 10mm coroplast cut tool?

    Good jig saw is gonna run ya about $125 to $175. Decent 14" scroll saw about $400 to $600. Have 5 jig saws and one old bastard of a 22" scroll saw. Band saws are around, but you have far more control with a scroll saw. The curves would be ideal for the jig saw and that bug one would be fine...
  19. When you outsource, do you tell the customer?

    Ahhh.... everything here refers to one single sign, not 2 or 3 or 300. Just one sign and you want us to think you are 100% transparent with your customers. You can't even remember what you wrote less than 2 hours ago. No wonder you farm so much out.... you can't keep tabs on what you're...
  20. When you outsource, do you tell the customer?

    No, I didn't say that, but evidently..... you think you are. No where did you make that scenario known, but you want us to think you are 100% up front with your customers telling them this mumbo jumbo sh!t and you can't even write it here for others in your industry to read. We're supposed...
