  1. Recent Phototex wall for museum.

    Although I'm a big fan of PhotoTex, I have found that it can be problematic on knock down textured walls. I used the high tack on my man cave wall and have noticed in areas where it's not adhering at all. The spots look like blisters where it lifted. It can't fall off because I used trim over it...
  2. Corel draw X7 Vs. X5 learning curve?

    I upgraded from X5 to X6 strictly to take advantage of my 64bit OS and additional RAM. I looked at the features of X7 and didn't see anything that I couldn't live without. I use a lot of features that I've learned over the years. Once you have a grasp of your main day to day tools, you can build...
  3. New Deli Sign

    Although this thread was resurrected from the dead, those questioning the price of the work need to understand one thing, if you don't ask for it, you won't get it.

  12. Not really signs

    I often get request to make something that isn't really a sign, and I enjoy those challenges as it helps break up the day to day routine. Here are two projects I took on. One is for a local hospital that asked if I could design and build a wall display case for their hospital happenings. I built...
  13. Hello 3D modelers

    A hundred years ago, I spent some time learning to use Bryce 3D but was so frustrated with the rendering times that I eventually gave up on it. Never seemed that any computer I was using had enough muscle. I'm sure today thing have probably improved significantly. I've seen some pretty descent...
