How would you hang a small HDU sign on an interior wall?

This is my first attempt at leafing with real gold. I have to say, I was pretty nervous about it, but surprised at how easy it ended up being.

I'm making a sign for my shop from 2" HDU. This is a double sided hanging sign. I know the best method would be to use thinner HDU and sandwich either PVC or MDO in the middle for support for the hanging hardware. But I have a big piece of 2" material here and would like to use it. This is a...

This is a long shot, but I need some possible coding help. I'm using Woo Canvas along with Huge It portfolio and having an issue with the menu bar overlapping my portfolio images. I like the portfolio plugin and would like to keep it if possible. If anyone would be willing to take a look at...

But my brain is fried today!

I have a client asking to cover a 28" tall by 87" wide interior window with frosted vinyl and his logo reverse cut. I'm a little hesitant to tackle this with regular vinyl, but may have to. The other issue is I only have a 24" cutter. Was hoping to find someone who would want to cut this for...

Stumped with this one...

I'm not sure the make and model of this van...

It looks like some others I have, but haven't found an exact match yet. WhatTheFont hasn't helped either...

Just curious to hear everyone's policies about providing working files. I have a customer who is always complaining because I work in Corel and can't provide him Photoshop files so he can make adjustments later on to keep the design up to date. (expiration dates, etc.) My feeling is, I'm...

Had some fun practicing my distressing techniques this weekend.

Here's a sign I just finished up. Still working on my hand carving, some of the depths of the letters are off, but it's getting easier!

Thanks!

I've been practicing (and still need lots of practice) my hand carving skills. I have to say a big thanks to Adrian Page for taking so much time to help me get going with this. Here's a beach sign I'm wrapping up today. Made from HDU and hand painted with acrylic latex paints.

I have some questions for you guys experienced with paint mask and acrylic/latex type paints. I'm having issues with the mask taking some of the letter color off the base color (Also waterbased) when removing the mask. I've read it's better to peel while still wet, but what if you need 2...

his isn't the best pic, still need to work on my photography skills. Going to try to get some better ones in a bit. Trying to teach myself to hand carve signs. I've also gotten some great help from Adrian Page on this. Learned a lot on this one, namely not to use crappy HDU. This stuff was...

Does anyone know of a macro for Corel which easily keeps track of time spent on projects?

I tried WTF with no success. Anyone recoginze?

This is my first try at hand routing a sign. I learned a lot with this experiment. The HDU used was a scrap of very low density, I don't think I'd ever use that again for anything other than practice. Sorry for the rough pics.

Ok, I'll admit, customer relations isn't my strong suit. Just had a customer use this line on me after giving him a quote for a sell sheet layout. Keep in mind, I've already done a bit of work for him over the last couple months. He's been pretty good to deal with so far. "Can I see what...
