  1. New $46,000 logo for the State of Tennessee

    I've seen worse for 10x that
  2. Any FastSigns franchise owners?

    Franchises don't tend to be popular with this crowd, the sign business traditionally attracted a lot of independent characters. Personally I'm not a fan, this shop was actually started as a franchise before I came on board. I was hired to replace the franchise, which was dumped shortly after I...
  3. Any idea how to make... THIS?

    I'm with the formica option on a lightweight frame. We just had to reuse some panels that were an insulation type foamboard core with a wood "nailer" on top for hanging. The panels were contact cemented down.
  4. Thoughts on this design

    I agree too busy, both the graphic decorations and fades. I'm glad to see pretty straight forward black & white cop cars are becoming the norm again. Too many depts were trying to outdo each other and started looking like race cars or tow trucks
  5. Not really sign related

    Maybe one of the paint company visualizers that let you upload a pic would work https://www.sherwin-williams.com/visualizer/#
  6. Wrecker service truck lettering

    The final product came out nice. As for that website of airbrushed wreckers it's like comparing apples to oranges, when that client wants to spend more on lettering one trcuk than he now spend son his whole fleet maybe those designs may come in to play.
  7. Source for fancy Real Estate sign frames

    Yea, I've had a few people bring in old ones to redo, but I've never found a source for new ones.
  8. Source for fancy Real Estate sign frames

    Didn't see any sign frames like that on 4ever. They got the posts, but I only need the frame
  9. Source for fancy Real Estate sign frames

    I had a customer ask for some signs like this one. The ones I've seen are mass produced out of plastic, but usually for one of the big RE franchises. Anyone know a source to buy them? Thanks
  10. Opinion on layout vs layout?

    For a web page the top. For a sign the bottom
  11. Mounting Acrylic Letters on Vinyl Covered panel?

    We have a small exterior sign to do about 2x3. 1/2" PVC background with cut out acrylic letters. Instead of painting the PVC we were thinking about sheeting it with vinyl. The small acrylic letters (1"-3") will be mounted using VHB. Will that work on a panel covered with vinyl or do we need to...

  13. Vehicle wraps

    You could wrap a tailgate with edge prints as long as the customer doesn't mine the seams.
  14. TV advertising for signs?

    Since the business is mostly B2B I think TV ads aren't cost effective.
  15. Real Estate signage challenge

    Is it double sided? I've done these as a giant A frame. Once set up on site, screw a couple 2x4s ties on the bottom, and put some sand bags on these. I found a pic of one we did on site when we couldn't get holes dug. We added some plywood and used some concrete tubes that were at the site to...
  16. Vehicle wraps

    I have an Edge and wouldn't part with it and will replace it with another when I need to. It is a workhorse for what it does well. But wraps isn't one of those things. When I first got it 20 years ago(?) I actually did some jobs that approached being a wrap on some buses and trailers, but it...
  17. Vehicle wraps

    The Edge is not the machine for this. It can be done, with a lot of seams of course, but it just doesn't make sense when you can get the right print wholesale

    It's not how much you make, it's how much you get to keep.
