Work tables
Have two of these. Cost $280 for materials including the wheels for each.
Took about 4 hours each - but thats because I am anal and wanted everything square and level.
Just start with a 4'x8' box out of 2" x 4"s and work your way up.
Took an electric drill, circular saw...
Anyone got a resource in the southeast (preferrably near NC) who offers wholesale vinyl cutting/weeding/premasking? Panels are 5.75 x 29, but lettering is just gloss white. Can send artwork to review prior to estimating if needed.
Thanks

And if everyone could afford a flatbed and had space to put one and had an operator to run it... then I guess that would happen.
I guess I got into this to make a living and to grow a business past a few years in business so I thought the object was to deliver good products at a fair price...
So they can afford to buy all those machines to help every small sign shop who can't afford to buy them.
I just got this quote from a regional wholesaler:
Hi Sean,
For 30 coroplast signs, 18x24, 2 sided, 3 colored is $195.00.
and shipping to NC is $29.00
Total $224.00

Coro costs
Your costs and profit only add up to $36.50. Are you subtracting for material waste for the 2 sq. feet left over? I try to figure in wastage so it should be $1.25 x 32 = $40 - $16.50 (costs) = $23.50 profit per board... you know... theoretically
I didn't say I would do it for $1.25 a square foot but there are a ton of wholesale guys who will. A simple Google search for "cheap coroplast yard signs" will yield you quite a few.
I am not a wholesaler and don't even play one on TV. I suppose it also depends on how much competition you have...
Big Fish - please PM me with that material info.
FYI - i took a pressure washer to it on really low setting with a fan pattern and it knocked out all the fill ins.
Does anyone make window perf that is already black on both sides so you wouldn't have to print anything for a solid black fill? I have 54 38" windows to put perf on and 50 of them are solid black and the other 4 will have a logo spread across them.
Just curious... would save alot of print time.

Trans-Flex-Cast Static Cling Vinyl
Trans-Flex-Cast™, a soft polished flexible vinyl adhered to cast coated board, is called an “adhesiveless decal”. Trans-Flex-Cast™ will self-adhere to most smooth surfaces including glass, polished metal and other plastics. It has been...
For me its around shading/shadowing. Some seamless textures just don't look real when you join them together because any shadowing is stagnant across the image - meaning - if I tile something together that is 8 feet across - the shadowing should be different from one end to the other to make it...
How about Bright Idea Graphics - then your monogram can be B.I.G.. So if you do large stuff like us - you can have a dual purpose name of thinking creatively with Bright Idea or advertising that you do big stuff with B.I.G - people would see that and think either Bright Idea Graphics or BIG...
Just so I am clear... you are a wholesale provider who was actively letting your customer's clients go around him and straight to you before the goose laid the egg?
Okay, so one of my brillaint marketing companies has come up with an idea for a display and they are incorporating these 8.5x11 cards that fans can put messages on and the USO will send out to troops in Afraqistyria (my new combined name for Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria).
They want to somehow...
