  1. Gerber Edge 2 rod broke

    Just put it back. It happens to mine occasionally, more the older it gets. You just have to line up the little slot with the wire that holds it and push. Don't force, it should click back into place fairly easily.
  2. Applying laminated vinyl to ACM question

    How about this post is almost a year old....job is long done one way or another.
  3. sign gold

    Everything fades, especially if you're on the ocean. Almost impossible to match any material that's been exposed for any amount of time.
  4. Suggestions How to hang a double sided 4 x 8 sign

    You're going to get a lot of responses telling you not to make it as a swinging sign, that's a large panel for that type of install. Also you will be asked about the integrity of the post and arm. But I will just answer the question as asked. I would use at least 3/4" MDO, and a frame isn't a...
  5. Where can I find brackets like these? (pic)

    Yea, that's a nice report...but wth does it mean o_O? Will those clips hold a 4x8 pan sign standing straight up in a serious wind?
  6. Sign post (bollard)

    I went through the search for something like this. They are all steel pipe with a uchannel or square post added. And the cost for the steel pipe was surprisingly expensive
  7. Where can I find brackets like these? (pic)

    Wow, those are pretty cool, but will they hold a sign that is standing up as opposed to a solar panel that lies flat?
  8. Installing dibond signs on chain-link solo?

    We do backplates & thru bolt. But zip ties would come in handy to hold it it place while doing it solo.
  9. Sandblasted Extira?

    I haven't used Extira in a while, and when I did we routed it. We followed finishing instructions exactly, and then some. It didn't hold up well. we had to refinish it in less than a year. If the place hadn't folded I would've had to replace it.
  10. What would you do?

    I agree, don't burn your bridges, just treat them like any other customer. I had a similar situation with a bus company, but they did operate as a commercial sign shop. They didn't last.
  11. Wow, Check out this estimate

    Good point ColorCrest, maybe it is an error, its a weird way of showing a price for two signs
  12. Wow, Check out this estimate

    Wow...I did the same as some others...I thought "That's not bad"....til I realized it was for both. I'm not so sure I'd be anxious to help the client out by installing them though. I guess if you get you usual rate it's worth it. But it's also kinda cutting you own throat. One of the reasons we...
  13. Gino is missing...

    After seeing this I went to look for Gino...I guess he is missing/banned. Interesting to note that some of the top members (according to the "Notable Members" section) are dead, missing or banned.
  14. Your GOOGLE listing. I've had it

    I have had some scam calls that are so well done it's amazing. One was that my power was going to be turned off because I hadn't paid to have my meter upgraded and if it was disconnected it would take up to 48 hours to be restored. Well the power company is upgrading meters in this area...but I...
  15. Question Customer refuses to pay, can I take his graphics down?

    Collection agencies are only effective if you have a rock solid paper trail.And they take a large fee. Si,if you do, you might as well file the suit yourself and save the money.
  16. Question Customer refuses to pay, can I take his graphics down?

    I don't think the cops knew what they were talking about. At a place I worked we went out and took down some sandblasted signs at night. The next day the cops were at the shop investigating the theft. We had them hidden and said nothing.They said if we got caught we would be arrested, Now there...
  17. Complaining about attitudes on S101?

    I usually ignore the BS, it's not hard to do. I do miss a lot of great sign people who have dropped out of here. I have a feeling it was a combination of the snark and the repetition of questions.
  18. Vehicle Paint Oxidation - Please Help

    I would try an auto detailer, they can buff with polish compound and then wash.
