  1. Acrylic Poster Holder with Bronze/Black Stand Offs

    Looking for 2'x3' Acrylic Poster Holders with Bronze Colored Stand offs, preferably 6 per unit. All I find are aluminum stand offs. I know I can get black stand offs and make them with two layers of acrylic, but I'd like to find pre-made ones that are designed for easy change out by the client.
  2. TBT Carved sign

    Saw this a few weeks ago. One of the earlier HDU carved signs we did, maybe 25 years ago? Carved, gilded, smalt background, aluminum columns. Holding up well.
  3. "New" pet peeves

    I've tried to get clients to do their web addresses with upper/lower case, like www.SignsForHire.net, but they insist on www.signsforhire.com. Even though I point out that it will come up typed either way and is much easier to read upper/lower case. And now that you have to dial area code for...
  4. Best printer for economy paper posters

    We print a boatload of paper posters on our 60" HP Designjets. I've gone through a few 5000/5500 and now have a z6100 and a z6200. Looks like the 6100 is toast, if I'm reading the problem right, the parts would cost $1000-1500, which is almost what the printer is worth. My first thought is to...
  5. another TBT

    Saw this wood sign I hand lettered about 15 years ago. The client gave us the salvaged boards and we used them unfinished as requested. Battened on the back, cut the ends and handlettered. It's holding up OK and gave him the vintage look he wanted.
  6. Reflective blanks WITHOUT holes

    Anyone have a source for .080 reflective blanks without holes? Seems like they all make them with the pre-punched holes inset 3", which screws up a lot of layouts. Thanks
  7. TBT Electric Sign & Aluminum Sign

    I saw these two signs were still up after 30 years, done while I worked at Morgan Sign CO (now gone). The electric sign face is cut out red & black acrylic pinned to a white acrylic face. The face details were hand painted with black one shot. The other sign is .040 aluminum all hand lettered...
  8. What large format vinyl would solve this problem, economically

    I have a project where I need to cover aprx 12 existing gatorfoam panels with white vinyl. They interior and are 60"x68" and smooth. I have to use something that is opaque. So I need something 60" wide, but I guess I could live with seams if absolutely necessary, but would prefer not to. I don't...

  14. Handpainted signs weather so nicely

    Stopped down to this area on the water for lunch today. Nice enough to sit on the deck and admire these signs I painted 20+ years ago. Considering they're exposed to salt spray and full sun they are holding up OK. Even weathered out they still work and add to the ambiance of the building. An...

    One of my favorite comics made a sign funny
  16. ACM channel molding

    I'm doing a 100' storefront with matte black 3mm ACM. I was wondering if there is a nice aluminum "H" channel to use on the seams instead of just butting them together. I checked Outwater Plastics but I don't see one for 3mm(1/8") Anyone have a source? Thanks

  19. Stripping paint off fire damaged HDU carved sign

    Well here's a new one for me. A double sided carved HDU sign we did for a church was damaged in a brush fire. The finish got cooked pretty well but the sign itself seems fine, from what I can see. It is double sided with an applied panel on top and a cross on that. It was finished with acrylic...
