If we are using 6mm Solid Core ACM, we use a couple of stainless screws along with VHB to secure pads. Have not failed yet.

Roll up doors should never be installed facing south. I was in a 3500 sf shop with one 12' roll up facing east, three 14' facing south and one man door facing west. It was a routine of east door down til sun cleared, then slowly opened, south doors up and lowered as the shadow came across the...

I good friend and small customer of mine wanted decals for a specific Harley-Davidson a few years ago. I told him it would take hours to reproduce the complicated design. We found the decals online and bought them. The seller stated there was only one set. The next day he somehow had one more...

As a 30 yr vet, I've never hear the term Center Tapped. There are two ways to wire a neon tube. Every hanging window sign, or beer sign, etc. I've ever seen has been wired with no ground. The transformer leads are attached to each end of the tubing. GTO cable (rated at 15kv) is used and each...

When a customer asks for magnets, I ask them if they are ashamed of where they go to church or ashamed of where they drink beer.

Just Google it. Really, if you can't figure out where to order aluminum blanks then you have failed test number one.

I've searched for the truth my whole life, now I'm wondering if I can recognize it when it's staring at me. So who wrote the freaking poem??

My father was born in 1935, in a two room log cabin with no electricity, no running water and only a mule for family transportation. We are living in the fastest changing hundred years in the history of this planet and AI will accelerate our current trajectory by multiples. The good news is I'm...

Well, tell us all what kind of mask worked.

In my early 20's, I had the awful experience of selling mobile homes for a living. Good money, but no way to be a good human. Even with my excellent youthful eyesight I was struggling to read what seemed like 10,000 words in 3 pt print on the back of our contracts. The owner walked by and said...

Leave the staples? That mindset is why our installers, fabricators, technicians, etc. earn 18-22 bucks an hour when their counterparts (electricians, plumbers, hvac, etc) take home 22-28 bucks around here. Are we professionals, or second rate hacks?

It's magnetic, .030 thick and made from steel embedded in rubber. The rubber decal wheel might polish it, but it won't remove it.

It will cost more time to prep it for a new print than an aluminum panel will cost. Removing aged magnetic is no easy task and will usually expose rust underneath. At least around here an hour or two scraping and cleaning is worth a lot more than a 10 dollar piece of 040.

We have several locations of a Mexican joint called El Tapatio that we all just refer to as El Tap. Think McD's of Mexican food in our town. Cheap, quick and consistent. It's where my ball teams wound up at after games and practices.They opened up a new location in the new TA travel center. My...

I love 100% silicone, but when gong through an elastomeric rubber roof (or rubber Parapet) I recommend a neoprene sealant such as Black Jack Neoprene Super Flash Cement. If you're not sure or can't find it at Home Depot, Lowes, Ace or True Value, try a local commercial roofer for a couple tubes...

New substrate.

Didn't Herbert Hoover sing Paradise by the Dashboard Light?
