  1. Sad news, read about Bob Stephens (Sign Maniac) in the newest Signcraft

    So sad to hear about his passing. He was one of the greats on the site, always had good advice and did some outstanding work.
  2. Sign repair

    The faces look to be just screwed onto this inner frame. If the frame is still good, run flat bar up the sides and extend it about an inch above the top with holes in the flat bar to hang it form. The screw for the side mounted flat bar will get less stress and damage as it's on the sides rather...
  3. ACM Installation on Wall

    You may have to change material for your backer panel and do an overlapping joint to make it more like one piece.
  4. Need Help what dimensional lettering material to use?

    That's a hard one. do they really have to stand off .5"? Can you talk them into flush mount? If not, maybe go with clear flame polished with black faces so that you can flush stud mount them.
  5. Need Help NEED TO EDIT THIS MENU...I COULD USE SOME HELP

    both of the PDF have fonts, Tekton and Tekton-bold. You can probably find a free version of those fonts and see if that helps
  6. Big clients that don't pay on time?????

    60% deposit and the balance due upon completion. Ask them to have their check ready when picking up or if you go install. don't hand it over until you get paid.
  7. End of Daylight Savings Time screws up websites

    This has to be one of the dumbest back and forth threads we've had in a long time.
  8. End of Daylight Savings Time screws up websites

    Isn't a 24 hour clock just mean confusing times like 17 o'clock and such? I've never heard it mean everyone is on the same time/time zone. Where did you hear that one?
  9. For those of you outside of Texas...

    The article was interesting. The two logos are really different. One is simple and clear and the other cluttered. Take out who is running and just look at the logos, the black and white is much better than to overly fussy one. The tried to cram in way to many things into one little logo to the...
  10. Cricut "Competitors"

    They are craft people so not too surprised they get their blank at Hobby Lobby and use a Circuit.
  11. Your Tax Dollars at Work road sign cost

    Anyone else think David Wolfe lives in his mom's basement and probably has a collection of Star Wars action figures. Past that I too never saw anything about $600 each to install.
  12. Designing for signs

    Some of the worst signs out there came from designers not in our industry. Print designers come up with the worst ideas for signs when it comes to colors, fonts and general layout. One of the worst that I've seen was for a hospital. The important lettering was .5" high spaced out at 300% in a...
  13. Process Pro Black VS Black on gerber edge?

    I use a spot black and never really consider an Edge print as long lasting. We use ours for interior use type work, decals for products and labels. For exterior prints I have another source that does last and we use that instead. The end color on the 4 cp may be a little off but haven't had...
  14. Dimensional bent steel, 1/8" x 3/4", powder coated

    You need a blacksmith/steel fabricator as others have said.. At .125" thick, how are they mounted? The ones you show look like there are welded studs or maybe some kind of tab. If Gemini can do the .25" at .75" deep as cast, they would look so much better as the only other way is bending by hand...
  15. Hand Carved Signs

    Very nice!
  16. Why I ask so many questions

    It is impossible for you to know that a bad rough looking file is what it is suppose to look like unless the customer tells you. Any customer that you've lost because you've asked a question is an idiot as you are the "Vector Doctor" not Eric the mind reader ;)
