Permits are not hinged on UL labels, but our inspectors always check for UL label if they are on site. They want to see that sticker/label but they don't even check number... seen it myself.

Yup, that what i was talking about. That is why we had to get new certification for light box that we removed old tubes & installed all new LED lights. I just had hard time to explain to him that even if parts are UL listed, it does not make can/channel letter assembly UL listed. P.S. So i am...

I am just going by my own experience. Once we refubrished the box, gutted old tubes ballasts etc & installed LED lights, we had to get it certified again. All i am asking - If some one takes a box/channel letter & installed UL listed electric components in it, i think it is still not legal to...

I had discussion with one of my new customers, he is an electrician. He did some electrical work for friend of mine, specifically wired a light box, with was manufactured by a welding shop. He claims that as long as he is using UL ir CSA listed parts its all legal etc & does not have to be...

Thank you, Fred!

I found 6 in my library that are close, but not exact. have to match existing signs. Help would be much appreciated!

I totally agree with your points. That i why most of us are working 10+ days :) His business was pretty big for our small city. He had his own logging company + trucking company that was operating Canada + US + Mexico. He wrapped up in 2007 because as he said "I had enough i wanted to see my...

Whole picture sucks. I did not have that much experience going through that many employees but i had 5 employees since i started in 2010. I always paid them quiet a bit above minimum wage. Can't say that all of them were bad, but there is simple explanation - It is not their business, they will...

I will be home based June 1st. Losing store front after 7 years. I am actually excited about it! Will not miss tire kickers/time wasters etc. All my regulars do not care if i do have store front or not. Also, most of my new clients do not even stop by at the shop some times, everything is done...

I never wrap the edges... for some reason i don't think its going to hold for a long time. Much easier for water & crap to get in & it will start peeling... but maybe its just me

yeah, i was wondering about the price :) Talked to one of my equipment dealers who sells GCC lasers, he said they are pretty close in prices etc. So he said new one with these specs go for 25k Canadian dollars right now. Told me i should ask 16k or if i want to sell it fast, 12k CAD

If you do not want them, they always are welcome in Canada!!! At least or dumb PM sent that message out... Canada already turned into crap. I am thinking of moving to North Carolina in 2020

Thinking of getting rid of my PLS 4.75 50 watt laser with exhaust fan. Bought it 3 years ago, but almost never used it. Maybe have total of 48 hours on it. Just wondering what would be reasonable to ask for it?

If i do original design, i always do RGB since my Roland prints MUCH richer colors using RGB. I tried bazillion combinations but RGB was always better than CMYK. Different story if i get already designed logo/artwork in CMYK - then i do everything in CMYK mode.

54" is way better investment compare to 30". For brand - whatever you prefer. Most of us are sticking with a brand that works for us from day one. For me, its Roland machines, for some one else - Mutoh or HP. P.S. Sorry, but had a laugh when i seen: 1) Name: Katie 2) Topic name: What size to...

This escalated quickly! :D

Was stressful to deal with middle east people first... they are always asking for deals etc. Was stupid at first and allowed them to bend me over on some stuff because i wanted their business. But now they are no different than others. I give them my price & explain what they get. 9/10 they...

Nah, i am not even planing to design anything on site, but take a picture, put it in corel & make notes & quick drafts so i can transfer everything on work computer after. Its just a convenience thing. Decided to grab Teclast x5 Pro tablet. its a china brand which is not as powerfull as Surface...

I need it to be able to run Corel & Photoshop. I will not be designing super complex graphics on it. Its more for me to show something to the customers when i am visiting them. Reason why i am thinking about Surface is not because of pen but the horse power to be able to run needed software.

Thinking of getting a surface pro tablet 3 or 4 for single purpose to use it during my visits with customers. I think it will be handy to make quick notes/proofs etc on spot. Wondering if anyone is using it or any other product that would run Corel & photoshop.
