  1. Need font for dimensional letters?

    You can download any and all of the fonts Gemini uses from their website. That way you compare them easily to the seal. And you can make your own pattern that way if you like.
  2. issues cutting vinyl with flexisign and roland

    I've had issues very rarely where old flexi files that were usable for a long time become corrupted and cause crashes, cutting/printing issues, etc. Like you, sometimes the fix is to import the bad file into a new file. I've had files that would no longer save and crash flexi; but if I ungrouped...
  3. I'm looking for good vehicle decal software.

    Hate to say it decalman but you might as well be asking about neon plants and where to find good lettering quills and paint. Not a lot of demand for vector ornaments these days. Just not the where the industry is heading.
  4. Oracal 651 on flat paint failing - ideas and tips for re-install

    Same thing happened to a local broker who buys vinyl and signs from me from time to time. He and his client didn't want to paint the door with oil-based paint, so I sold him magnetic material with the same kind of lettering on it.

  6. Need Help Reverse channel letter removal.

    I wouldn't dispose of them in any case. People love to buy old channel letters or dimensional letters to decorate their homes and garages.
  7. tipping UPS or fed/Ex driver for holidays

    15-20 years ago I would absolutely do something for my UPS guy. He was my regular driver and would go above and beyond to get there as early as possible and make sure I got the package if I wasn't at the shop. I had his cell number and could call and schedule for him to meet me at his next stop...

    Welcome aboard. My brother is a former sign guy who left the industry to teach special ed 10 years ago. So you guys cancel each other out.
  9. cleaning UV ink off acrylic

    You don't have problems with alcohol crazing/cracking acrylic? I thought that was a no-no.
  10. Old clock face

    Quoted for truth
  11. Exterior pylon signs: Polycarbonate VS Lexan VS Acrylic....

    Definitely not true (although it is true that it does not yellow). As I've said in other threads, I use a lot of high-impact acrylic pan faces and they are durable enough for most signs up to 4x8 or maybe 5x10. But you do have to be very careful with them because the corners will break/crack...
  12. New Owner of Signs101.com

    Thanks Fred. Welcome Paul. Glad that we'll have a bigger CNC presence here. Ironically, I evidently joined CNCzone just after you sold it, lol. You'll have big shoes to fill; Fred has done a wonderful job here in the years I've been a member.
  13. Font ID help

    You forgot this one
  14. Backlit sign materials grimco

    I have a supplier who makes high-impact (modified) acrylic pan faces, so that's what I'd use in this case. It's likely not going to break under normal conditions and it will stay white. (I realize not many suppliers make these, however.) Even at 4' x 6', I don't trust flat acrylic, even...
  15. If you don't employ an electrician, how do you install signs requiring electricity?

    In all its wisdom, my local building inspector's office recently decided that only master electricians may hook any signs to primary wiring, even if it is already stubbed out. So even when I am just moving electric signs or installing new electric signs at sites that have existing wiring to the...
  16. Can someone convert an old .fs file to .ai or .eps please?

    I could see the preview but couldn't open it. Got unexpected file format error.
  17. Pinkum

    I was wondering why they had a :corndog: in their logo until I zoomed and saw it is a light bulb.
  18. Buying polycarbonate & acrylic sheets from china ocean freight save 60% vs usa

    ^ Same here, Gino. For 20 years our chamber of commerce's slogan has been "Buy Local," and yet they always try to buy their electric and LED signage from an out of state shop that gives them a kickback and their other stuff online from the cheapest source.
  19. Sold my JV33- 160 - Now what?

    If you have the manual, the procedure you need to do is called "custody wash." At least that's what it is on my good old JV3.
