  1. landline or cell

    I use a cell for business, always on the run really. Eventually I'm going to get magicjack just to use as a 'business' line (really just voicemail and a dedicated line for branding purposes that won't eat minutes. ... and i can forward to my phone if need be.) But in all practicality something...
  2. 2013 Walldogs Design

    I think the t-shirt will be the ultimate factor in this design. I personally thing the background grey should be more like a charcoal grey shirt color not so much ash grey. (help the copper color transition visually and let the colors pop as a whole) I like the dog mask, I saw it as such...
  3. Tired of Being told how much $$ you should make?

    no one tells me how much I should charge on a job, they might haggle though. "can you cut me a break on these graphics" stuff like that. all my regulars know that trying to dictate price will end badly since I don't budge on pricing as it is.
  4. Cedar wood blasting setup help

    Well, cedar signs and novelty items are 2 different things. When I make sand blasted signs I end up taking mine to a body shop that sand blasts cars, takes them 2 minutes to do what would take me about 30-45 minutes with any sort of setup I can get in my shop. It all comes down to output...
  5. so I'm coming back from lunch....

    TIRED!?!?! Had to say it.
  6. What, exactly, makes sign people qualified to design anything?

    I think it comes down to time management really ... The reason why ad agencies, design firms and the such make cohesive and strong design work (logo or otherwise) is the shear amount of man hours they devote to one job. if a design firm has a team of 3 to 5 members, each one brings out 5...
  7. Floor wrap?

    I've done a few huge graphics ... stuff never went from edge to edge but it was in a retail store in the mall and was a 12' circle ... used a 6 or 8 mil pebble finish laminate ... lasted almost about a year of constant wear and tear without any real issues ... did some maintenance on it...
  8. Cuting vinyl roll down to size

    I've picked up tons of rolls of vinyl, laminate, canvas, banner material, etc from shops that close down... a lot of it rolls that are highly unusable unless i have a 102" machine or something equally as unwieldy ... I just make sure the area I'm going to cut is done with a hand saw (have a...
  9. liscense plate frames

    You can get them billeted for high quality frames that are completely custom if the customer wants to order enough of them (for like a fleet or their store). There are companies though that have them stock ... thick frames too that are really high quality. I normally keep about 6 regular and 2...
  10. Fix large bubbles

    There really isn't a way to fix that, there will be dirt and particulates inside the bubbles *especially* with that hole in the bubble. really the only thing you can do is attempt to heat the vinyl to activate the adhesive more then squeegee then reheat and squeegee again. most likely though...
  11. Whose going??

    Hour and a half to an hour depending on traffic past rat town (disney). myrtle beach is better (opposite direction) I want to go, but I barely get a second day off for a weekend every 3 months ... let alone a whole week. It would be fun to be in o-town again. oh well, maybe the dallas one...
  12. double sided foam tape?

    check duraco for it ... i think they offer a gel based double sided tape. http://www.duracoinc.com/
  13. Looking for used screen printing equipment

    Four color presses aren't that expensive (about $300-$1000 new depending on quality) ... i mean heck, if you just need a down and dirty press for not a lot of money (i'm assuming as a start up machine) ... http://www.printingplans.com/ make your own. your real cost will be your curing station...
  14. New Logo For new Company

    It's called the search function. spend some time on the site. See, funny thing about this ... i don't need to justify to someone who thought that stealing clipart off a stock art site and calling it a logo to use for their 'companies' logo was a good idea. I'm done with you, this is my last...
  15. New Logo For new Company

    I'm not ticked off ... i just think you have no place being here with your jackassery. go steal artwork somewhere else.
  16. Folding banner edges

    you guys must be the exception, i've seen many of them fail just because the edge wasn't heated up and compressed to give it a nice memory edge to help not work itself free. there was a place in orlando that was just printing and taping ... kept getting his customers at the time since they kept...
  17. TyrantDesigner

    Dude, totally saw your truck at harbor freight the other day. +1 to that!

  18. Font match

    Oh, tiki got it ... I was sure it was myriad pro-bold. the "p" is different with myriad.
  19. Why the limited gamut?

    I've never seen a difference from inks that is from aqueous to solvent ... now actual printing surfaces is completely different ... I picked up a roll of canvas (for a rediculously low price .... and got what i paid for) .... well that roll of canvas printed completely different from my normal...
  20. Folding banner edges

    well, banner tape seems to be the down and dirty way of making them ... I would still heat the edges after you tape it to make a heat bend to prevent delaming of the tape later on (one hot day in florida and they are effed in the aye ... bow chicka wow style). personally I always send my...
