So I have always painted my signs with a spray gun through an air compressor. It works when dry, but it's been raining for weeks here and there is a ton of moisture and I do drain it out first, but when it fills up with air, it's soaking again coming out. My latest project has been getting all...

I designed this logo for a customer (they wanted a simple kids like bell, it's ugly.) Overlapped black letters on the yellow, which was impossible to read so I added a white outline, etc. Well she says it's not what she wants, she wants it more "contemporary" and this is what she says...

Does anyone know if RV's are painted or have vinyl graphics from the factory? It has Clear Diamond Shield on it.

I don't know if this is available everywhere, but ZTE makes a device called Cruise Connect. I have US Cellular and they only charge $10/month for it. Here is just a few things it does. -Fully tracks the vehicles route by google maps, shows where it left from, where it stopped, which roads it...

I am putting in a 1/4-20 tap into 1/2" acrylic that is 3/8" deep. I've tried using a cone shaped tap and it's got too much of a taper on it, so after research apparently I need a bottoming tap. Amazon carries a set of 3 taps, one of which is bottoming, but I don't think I need the other two...

Customer wants a routed wood sign 2' X 3' but wants it on a X Base Stand that is 5' 4" tall. I am confused as I thought X Stands were for Banners or for pedestal signs. Never seen this done with a routed wood sign?

Can someone post a color profile for Oracal 3165RA for a Roland VP540i ? It's only a 4 color CMYK Thanks

I saw a ton of posts for a sign fabricator with 20 years of experience, I emailed him asking what his salary requirements were. Then I noticed every ad he placed, he posted a different email address, like 5 of them, all random. Here is his response. "Sorry About Not Getting Back To You Any...

The first few years as a sign maker, I always printed my graphics at 1440 X 1440 and even 720X1440. I always thought I would be better than the average sign shop and produce better quality signs. Years later I learned that the customer doesn't give a crap what quality is it. A banner is a...

Has anyone seen this before? I don't know if this is a new product or just a half ass job. Any idea on the name of it or where to get them?

Anyone know of which national sign account handles Goodwill? Thanks

A guy who has been in signs for awhile decided to open his own sign shop. He needs a good income so he leased a spot of around 1,200 sq. ft. and continues working out of town and has his kids who are both under 18 run it for him for right now by themselves. He doesn't have a sign on the shop or...

Whoever designed this needs to be shot. Why do people use black backgrounds with back-lit? Horrible idea. You guessed it, completely unreadable at night.

Does anyone know of a manufacturing company I can send tracings of channel letters and they make new faces? Thanks

I did not make this, but I've loved this for years. Whoever did it is a genius of design and wrapping. If I had this skill, I could do so much. What other realistic wraps are out there? Anyone remember the bound and gagged on the back of the pick up truck door?

So the only places I know of to find people with sign industry experience is Signs101 and Signweb. It's rare and hard to find any on indeed. Is there a magical place that all sign experienced people go to post their resumes? Also most resumes I look at have 20+ years of experience, I would love...

Currently I have a VP540i which has a printing speed of 144 sq. ft. per hour. The new Soljet Pro 4 is suppose to be 528 sq. ft. an hour. However when I watch the demo video on Roland's website, it seems slow. The amount of media that pushes out per swipe is small and the head unit is only moving...

I don't like that when you go to signs101.com now, it takes you to forum categories. It used to show all of the new posts. It's annoying having to go into a sub menu to get to it now.

I need a supplier who can quote me on a banner with the attached specs. Thanks
