I think most manufacturers recommend around 28 days for total outgassing. Personally, I wouldn't put it in my children's rooms. We have done cut vinyl trees and stuff though.

Now imagine that "certain people" actually practiced what they preached and ignored threads instead of storming into every conversation they disagreed with and started insulting people for reason X, Y, or Z?

They're in the $250k range and if they live up to the hype, they'll be worth every penny.

100% Kind of what I was hinting at in my post. It's all starting to feel very Sisyphean. Especially when you lose a big project to someone undercutting everybody by 40-50% and the finished product is absolute garbage.

It's hard to stay passionate and not cave to the "let's just do it like this anyway" type of customer when you know they can take their ugly design and get it made for the half the price online. Granted, it'll be ugly, cheap, and probably need to be replaced in a few months, but a lot of...

Marlene is 100% correct. She's probably more tactful than I am, but there is no place for the "meme" post from AMS. It's hateful garbage, plain and simple. The owner of Signs101 being okay with hateful content like that being hosted on this site is going to have a more detrimental effect on...

Laser etched glasses look pretty nice too, but you get white instead of black. And it doesn't come off.

This triggered me.

We save everything. Everything gets backup and archived. You never know when that customer who ordered 100 banners is going to come back and want to order 100 more of the exact same thing. It's 10 years. They'll wait 10 years.

My guess is it went something like this: Customer: "Make it say: blah, blah, blah, and blah." "All of that text isn't going to fit." Customer: "Make it smaller." "You're going to have different sizes in your type..." Customer: "Looks fine to me." Also, okra is spelled wrong.

Common misconception, Lincoln and Gore were co-creators. Lincoln was the silent partner.

My wife wouldn't go for it anyway. Unless we were moving the Czech Republic, she'd be all for that.

If you're doing boat numbers or DOT numbers or anything like that, you shouldn't have to do too much proofing. "Are these the right numbers?" should suffice. You can still get something to someone quick without having them looking over your shoulder. A piece of paper works just as well and the...

Even the burns in Texas are bigger.

Dang. Where? I'm packing my bags. Haha!

Haha! I would never get rid of my second monitor (so useful), but I definitely try to limit how much of my monitors a client can see (preferably none).

I think it depends on the state. I want to say California doesn't allow ANYTHING on the front windshield except for toll stickers and the like, but I might be wrong. There's one state that has pretty stringent rules about windshields.

As AKwrapguy mentioned, the bigger issue might be windshield laws. In Kentucky, for instance, you can't have anything below the AS-1 line on the windshield (I think 6" might be clear of the AS-1 line on most windshields though).

Yeah, you're opening up a can of worms. I've made the mistake a couple times of letting someone look over my shoulder while I make a "quick change" and it turns into an ordeal very quickly.

This is actually a pretty astute observation. I know several master tradesmen, most of whom either don't enjoy what they do anymore, or have moved on to other trades. I know a master plumber on his way to becoming a master electrician because plumbing got to be "too much like work". Haha!
