  1. HDU carved sign with stained glass

    Just in time for the 50th anniversary of a "Thanksgiving feast that couldn't be beat" (for those of you who know what that is) a new sign for what is now a community center. Carved HDU with raised border, copper wrapped sides, mounted on 6"x6" PT post with PVC post cover and skirt board. And...

    Yep that's one
  3. Carved HDU signs longer than 8'

    I can't believe this is the first time I've quoted a carved sign over 8', but I guess it is. I'm wondering what technique and adhesives others are using to join the panels. Since this is a wall mount I'm thinking of a butt joint between two letters and backing with dibond or alumalite. Using...
  4. "Feather" Banners w/Stands Wholesale

    I haven't sold any of these yet, but one of my best customers wants to get some. I see some really good prices from some recommended merchants, in the back of sign mags and online but I'm concerned about quality, especially of the pole & stake. Can anyone give me recommendations for vendors that...

  6. "Carved " Fonts

    I can't believe I'm having such a hard time finding these types of fonts. I'm looking for a font, classic serif style, that has a "carved" look. I have Clarendon Convex, which has the perfect effect, but is a little too heavy and square. I also have Augustea Open and Academy Engraved which are...
  7. Installing ACM letters on "exterior" stucco wall

    I'm going to be mounting some 12" custom cut 3mm ACM letters to a pedestrian tunnel wall. The tunnel goes under a street so it has some protection from the weather but not from temperatures which can run from zero to 100 degrees. The walls are a sand texture like stucco, maybe drivet? They...
  8. Cut Vinyl for Stucco Wall

    I have a job to price and one option is cut vinyl lettering applied to the wall. It's a pedestrian tunnel with a stucco sand texture finish. Is there a 15" punched vinyl available in colors that would work for this? Thanks
  9. Cheap Ts

    I have a client who needs T shirts for single day events so they don't want to spend a lot on them. They will have a full color element in them. Any suggestions on a vendor? Thanks!
  10. Roll Labels

    Anyone have a supplier for Roll Labels besides Stouse? I used to be able to labels as a convenience to my regular customers using Labels2trade. Now I've got customers coming for refills and they pissed that the price is a lot more.
  11. 6mm ACM or .080 Aluminum?

    I have a job to do replacing 4'x10' panels. They are installed on a steel frame up high in a windy area. (I'm not doing the install). The frame goes around the whole perimeter of the sign. The existing panels appear to be ACM, but can't tell for sure without removing them and that can't be done...
  12. Parking Lot Stencils

    I have a client that wants some of the large stock pavement stencils. Anyone have a good whole source? Thanks!
  13. Refinishing fake stone signs

    I have a client who has several existing signs that look like granite but are a man made material. They have had some damage and need refinishing. They have tried contacting the manufacturer who hasn't responded. Here is how the material is described...."a mixture of various aggregates and...
  14. Source for fancy Real Estate sign frames

    I had a customer ask for some signs like this one. The ones I've seen are mass produced out of plastic, but usually for one of the big RE franchises. Anyone know a source to buy them? Thanks
  15. Mounting Acrylic Letters on Vinyl Covered panel?

    We have a small exterior sign to do about 2x3. 1/2" PVC background with cut out acrylic letters. Instead of painting the PVC we were thinking about sheeting it with vinyl. The small acrylic letters (1"-3") will be mounted using VHB. Will that work on a panel covered with vinyl or do we need to...

  17. Before & After

    Hate tenant signs, never big enough to be legible. But do like before & afters. New sign is two layers of red alumalite bonded together, Gemini letters for header panel, 6"x6" PT with post covers.
  18. Quicky Faux Antique Sign

    Had a good customer call with a last minute request for a tradeshow sign that looked like it was as old as their business. A few quick fills, slap it on some black pvc & cutout. Nice to just have some fun once in a while.
  19. Poly Bag Yard Signs

    Anyone have a good source for full color poly bag yard signs with a turnaround time of less than a week? Thanks
  20. Old handpainted wall lettering

    Had to take some pics of this before it's gone. It is being disassembled and will be rebuilt in NYC as a restaurant. It is an old oyster processing barge, a 2 story floating "factory". It was pulled up on dry ground and turned into a bar about 100 years ago.
