  1. Font ID

    Prismatic HDU on a 20 year old sign. There's a LOT more letters than this - so really want to retype instead of redraw for the cut files. Any ideas?
  2. Powdercoating question

    Not a product we deal too much in, so figured I'd cross check it. We're looking to install alum. letters and shapes flush to a concrete wall. Was quoted for both sides of the aluminum, asked if 1 sided was an option for lower cost. Cost is lowered, but PC guy says: "Just so you know , if...

    note "W" - thanks!
  4. Will it Stick?

    I have my doubts about vinyl adhering to this plastic sheet. Never came up, so figured I'd a sk.
  5. Torching Liquid Lamination (Gloss)

    Possible to torch a liquid-laminated wall graphic onto a wall? Gloss finish. Anyone have any experience with this? Concerned that the torching might affect gloss/sheen, but also know liquid lam is used on wraps as well.
  6. Font ID Needed

    Model maker wants some little letters.
  7. Illuminate me?

    OK, so have a weird one. Customer is looking to have an illuminated monument sign, that appears to match his building in the daytime, and illuminates at night. His building is primarily black windows. They "need" the sign to be purple. I'm aware of where purple falls on the visibility...
  8. Illumination question

    Are there any ways to diffuse a bare LED module, without a cover? I want to put string LEDs on the rear of a 1/4" waterjetted aluminum design. The goal is to illuminate a painted gradient background lightly, and silhouette the crane design. Letters would be standard 10" halos. Planning on...
  9. Galaxy Note as a tool

    I've had a Note for the last 3 years, and it is simply the best tool I have for surveys. The Note lets me go paperless - I can dimension directly on any photo, or even draw a quick layout for a customer to see in the field. I email the pic over and I have dimensions on screen and ready to go...
  10. 304 Stainless Letters - How to Finish?

    So we have a bunch of 16" stainless steel letters, with what i guess is the oxidation on them. Non-brushed finish. (we don't work with steel, much) In the past, we've done some small SS things- custom ornaments for trucks, etc. Customer wants shiny. Its exterior signage. How do we make...

    Looking for the font here. Thanks!
  12. Product Advice Needed - Poly Banner material

    Customer has 12x 48" x 48" hanging banners. There are existing hangbars wired to the ceiling, so we'll banner tape a pole pocket at top and fold over. Fellers recommended this - anyone else either work with this specific material, or have any other options that'd work...
  13. Critique Requested

    Got another one in the works - A little background - this is going on a grey prefab concrete wall - it's long, boring, and grey. I figured some organic/flowing shapes will help break up this monstrosity. Hoping for pushthrough acrylic, illuminated cabinet, custom masking. This is super early...
  14. Can We Post Our Linked-Ins?

    Is it against policy to do so? Might be helpful for me to see what others are doing/have done in their careers, ask questions, etc.
  15. Just slipped a disk.

    First "major" injury while working. I was pushing against a lintel on a door frame. Anyone know any stretches or movements I can make besides curling into a ball on the floor? Figure a lot of you old cranky guys (does this make me an old cranky guy?) might have a tip or two.
  16. Adhering Stone Veneer to Fabricated Aluminum Monument

    Should we use epoxy adhesive? Welded/joined Wire mesh w/mortar? Foam product? It's going on 2 columns at either end of a existing sign. Customers, man.
  17. Remote Mounted Reverse Channel Letters

    Did 4x Monuments for this HOA. Fab alum. remote mounted letters, acrylic backs, LED illumination. Painted spacers. Raceway installed on rear of monument sign, wires sleeved and fed through.
  18. Looking to buy a new printer - MM's please view

    Looking to purchase a new printer to replace an old one out of part service. We're looking for a HP Latex 560, 60". Best price we've gotten is $15000 and change - Can anyone beat this price? Please message if able.
  19. Critique requested

    Trying to work around their awkwardly titled neighborhood. An "outlook" in Florida is anything over 25 feet above the surrounding terrain. Or at least they think so. I saw a letter that looked like a bird, so I made it a bird. Ah, design. Specifically, I'd like to keep the "S" in the bird...
  20. Hellcat

    We designed the "stinger" stripe for this bad boy, and applied matte black for the stripe and the hellcat logo... honestly, just a beautiful car done up right and wanted to show it off.
