  1. looking for corrugated plastic - NOT coroplast

    I have a customer that has the old style corrugated sign faces with cut out acrylic letters. One face is broken and we'd like to replace the broken side. None of my local suppliers have it. I know it's still made because those flashing arrow boards that you see around use it. I even...
  2. Bit cooling when cutting aluminum

    Hi all, I'm about to order a new CNC router (finally, the pandemic made me hold tight for six months) - 6' x 10' table, vacuum hold down system, ATC, etc.. When cutting aluminum it looks like I have two options for cooling the bit. First is a misting/coolant system (i.e. Unist or similar)...

  4. Pricing Gold Leaf

    Hi all, It's been a while since I posted on 101. Instead of putting this in the business/pricing forum I thought that it would be better here. I'm doing a lit sign for a local bakery. UL, permits, installation, the whole gig. As a "throw in" in included some door lettering in vinyl but want...
  5. What features on a router can't you do without

    Hi I'm starting to shop for a CNC router, planning on getting it this fall . I'm tired of either turning down work or having to outsource it to someone else. I've gotten the sales pitch on several "add-on" bits/pieces to various systems. I'm doubtful of their usefulness. For example, one...

  7. Shop logo attempt

    Hi Folks, OK, so I know that I'm not the best at this. Heck, I'm just an old/fat sign hanger and sheet metal guy. Anyway I got tired of whatever Roman I was using and decided to make a logo. I do a lot of wholesale installation work for out of town companies plus make elec signs as well...
  8. A thank you to Pioneer Supply

    We recently needed some signcomp extrusions for a retrofit project. it's a two piece system with the main piece and a bronze painted cover. Both were gotten quickly, but that's not why I want to give them a shout out. The cover piece that was given to us was a very similar item, but not...

    A new customer of ours is a "safe sex" store by name of Condom Kingdom and is looking to do something a bit different in front of the building. As if it's not already different. He already has many smiling 3D "sperm" hanging inside the store and would like to put some outside but wants them to...
  10. LED replacement for traditional 11 watt bulbs - need recomendations

    For the same job I had asked about for the LED cabinet retrofit, the customer also has some 4' tall open faced channel letters populated with 11 watt clear bulbs. They just asked about replacing these with some LED bulbs. It's mainly due to the fact that they are constantly changing bulbs out...
  11. cabinet LED retrofits

    Has anyone had any experience with Quik Stik (or something similar) leds for cabinet retrofits? In the past couple of days I've had a pair of requests for can retrofits and this kind of thing looks to be an alternative to a lattice system. One job is a 6x8 DF can that originally had pan faces...

    Hi Has anyone ever used the gold leaf that is being made in Thailand? I have a customer that wants some window work (hurrah for small miracles) and I will have to buy ~5 books to do it. In checking online I came across Golden Leaf products from California and their pricing on loose leaf is...
