  1. Big bucket

    Notarealsignguy, the Elliot wouldn't even notice.
  2. Shirt designs ?

    Your Design Here. Dang, wish I trademarked that.
  3. we've been hired to repaint this exhibit at a zoo in Nashville but they have no record of the font used as it was a loooong time ago

    Didn't you get the memo James Burke? This is Print 101. What's an Onion skin? Trace it, you mean with like a pencil? Good call Gino.
  4. Help me understand these specs....

    5mm (.016"). To the best of my calculations 5mm equals .1969", (1"= 25.4mm). I understand why it is confusing.
  5. 10 years down...

    Well, they won't overlook a player of your caliber. Hopefully you will be able to work with them. If not for them pays well, too.
  6. 10 years down...

    Congrates Moze. YESCO probably has an eye on you. Hope they blink.
  7. The Great Canning Jar Shortage?

    Just don't ever used a washed out minced garlic jar. Weed is supposed to give you the munchies anyway, but when you smell & taste that garlic it's pizza time.
  8. shipping issues

    I have been reading a lot about shipping over the course of the pandemic. Geneva Olson, your friend is absolutely correct. I read the following article a couple of weeks ago. The author tracked the entire journey of a stuffed animal from order to delivery, just to write the story. Why Is...
  9. I'm confused........................................................................................

    Without the biography I know Gino could yell "Get off my lawn" and feel good about it, although he looks like George Thorogood, Johnny Best is a closet Alice Cooper fan, and Boudica is the BADDEST woman in British history. Oh, Sh*t, were we talking about signs?
  10. I'm confused........................................................................................

    There should be a category where they ask, in the same voice as Arlo Guthrie in Alice's Restaurant: "Son, have you ever been on a ladder?"
  11. Attaching PVC Cut letters to Brick

    When I said "Studs, Period" we were talking brick, now it's fake plastic brick. We are in the sign business; details do matter.
  12. Does anyone use the SignCraft price guide?

    kcollinsdesign. I agrre with you. I dubbed it the Wal-Mart effect about 15 years ago. Cheap stuff fast, the new American Way. About the only thing I paint these days are screw heads and brackets. I bid on very few jobs; most are repeat customers. When I do bid, it's custom for the job.
  13. How do you categorize and/or organized your samples?

    I very rarely am ask for samples. Thirty plus years in a small town, my rep precedes me. I do save certain install hardware elements. Short pieces of components in small boxes. I do a lot of one of a kind installs, (until they need it redone at another location, or next year), so saving these...
  14. Scissor lift on slope

    Tow behind. JGL350 a little better than 300 a day at Sunbelt.
  15. Printed Translucent Adhesive and old lightbox acrylic

    Back to the question. Yes, you can, but it's not the right thing to do. My youngest daughter just bought a compact SUV. She asked the dealer if she could mount a trailer hitch on the car. He said, yes you can. And you can, but it voids the drive train warranty on the new ride. He didn't lie, but...
  16. Printed Translucent Adhesive and old lightbox acrylic

    Poly-carbonate Sheet yellows after a few years, but is much 'tougher' than Acrylic. NASCAR windshields are made of Poly, and it would replace glass in all autos if it could be made not to yellow. It's tough stuff. Acrylic should stay white for many years, but will became brittle sooner than...
  17. 10m coroplast hole punch recommendation

    Seriously though, Gino's stacked and pressed drilling idea has been used many times around here.
  18. 10m coroplast hole punch recommendation

    I noticed 'Judy' is only 8 ounces, Maybe step up to the 'Janice' at 12 oz, or go bold and try the 'Jolene' at 16 ounces. We got a 2 lb sledge with a 6 inch handle for things like this. I call it 'My Little Pecker'. And yow, better use the grommets.
  19. Discussion Boudica...................................

    Gino, the first job I had in the business was for a man who had 15 letter-styles in his pocket and 15 more with a pencil. Yough, he could paint! I learned from him, but I could never "paint" like him. I chased lines: stopped on the tape. But we did have a Sheb Wooley pounce pattern from the...
