so, the existing cabinet is 42" x 144" and has a flex face. The new client took over the commercial space, and needs to change the sign face. The cabinet is about 20 ft. up & in good condition. I've never had a close look at a flex face before, but I got up there & looked at, measured, and...

If I want to cut out letters to mount to a signboard, wall, or perhaps a second set of the letter, to double up thickness, or add a larger outline of a different color material.... ...I think I would like to apply sheet adhesive to the substrate before routing. I've purchased letters done this...

fortunately I am a much bigger fan of HDU, but it is pricey, and there are lots of cheaper foam letters on buildings around here, so a few years back, before I got my CNC, I sold a few sets of Gator Foam (Gator Board?) letters. One of the jobs had a real stylized font, with a heavy slant & the...

http://islandsign.com/fontid.jpg I think it looks a lot like branding iron, except for the distressed part, but I don't even have that font on my laptop tonight, and I'm supposed to try to get a few layouts done... hopefully I'll luck out and there is some free derivative...

I used 2 passes, 150 IPM feed, 60 IPM plunge, and 18000 rpm spindle.. I also used a 3D "line in" in enroute (meaning the bit plunges & begins to advance simultaneously, instead of drilling a hole and trying to advance against the full depth from a dead stop... as you can see in the pics, I...

well, as the title says I was able to design this & have it ready for install in record time. The client is on the resort property where Maui's largest & most high profile golf tournament is held. They were late getting approval & finally ordered the sign Wednesday, in hopes of getting it...

just posted on the Signs101 Facebook page, figured I'd see how wide spread this issue has been in the last 20 minutes..

Here's another $500 logo design (hey... I tried to ask $600.. but he had a budget of 500, so I caved :doh: ...but he is a repeat client, bordering on "friend") so anyway, I am over budget on time, and while I'm always open to hearing all the many ways it could be better, it's kinda/sorta...

so, I just got this email... damn, now they want me to place the call to get the stolen CC info... I thought for sure I'd get a google hit on any part of that "Continental Amanda crap"...but nuthin' ... blew 'em off anyway.. gotta be a scam!! we only take bogus credit cards from Nigeria...

....from the server switch, and not even running for the lifeboats to FB yet.. it's an eerie feeling...

I've put off posting this for days because I've been busy, and now I'm going to rush this post up because my employee will be here in 10 minutes... but I need to quote a job that involves some tasks I've not yet done. The granite has been picked out, still sits on the property of the stone...

ok, couldn't help copycat the train wreck thread title... just because... That train wreck helped inspire this job in a way... bashing people can be a guilty pleasure I have to tear myself away from, and the $500 price tag for a bit of design fun was just the low hanging fruit I needed to...

just when I got used to the issue with artboards that I think first cropped up for me in CS4..I encountered an out-of-the-blue odddity yesterday in Flexi... In illustrator, over the years I've often ignored the artboard, which I've typically left at 8.5" x 11" & selected the "hide" option...

well, this is just a last minute effort to bang out a few license plate blanks with radius corners. I already got client approval to hack up some 6x24 riders into 6x12 sign blanks with square corners..... - - - - - - - - - oh... I just found this half written post that I forgot about, hiding...

...then maybe we'll create a warp in the space time continuum

I was researching Static Cling decals last week. I had printed a few on my Mimaki, spoke to my supplier on various media prices, & also checked some big wholesale decal company I'd dealt with before. I was trying to get a quote ready for an important client, who also happened to have pretty...

sorry... just had to go with that dumb title... so, I never heard of these before, but I did see one in use just this past weekend. Anyway, I have a good client who needs one. I might call this guy, but I may be under some tight time lines, so I thought I should look into making my own...
