  1. Hang acrylic without standoffs

    Are mirror clips an option ??
  2. Needing advice with an HDU project

    Agree with Ryze - you are not applying the wrap directly to the bare HDU are you???? Assuming you will be priming and painting everything appropriately, you would have to do the same process for aluminum and wood. How long will this project be expected to last? Is it a temporary display or will...
  3. Needing advice with an HDU project

    Do you have any sketches, drawings, or sample photos yet? WHY HDU vs plywood or ACM ?
  4. Mounting Parking Signs to 1" Diameter Pipe

    Thank you Sean - that makes all the difference in the world to your question. You should have included the photo first. My vote is "yes". just use the standard conduit clamps and call it a day. (you will have to drill the appropriate holes. I would wrap the area on the pipe under the clamp with...
  5. Mounting Parking Signs to 1" Diameter Pipe

    In my world, any signs near parking areas are 2" square steel sign posts.
  6. Made incorrect posts, I need....

    To me, that's a bit odd that if they are the manufacturing "plant", they don't know who makes the signs for their distributors?? (Or, to contact their distributor for their proprietary corporate signs). We certainly appreciate your enthusiasm in wanting to serve the potential client. But, as...
  7. Made incorrect posts, I need....

    Do you want to buy some of the existing logos and lettering? Or - do you want to make your own. That process, from what I understand, is silver mirror finish on the INSIDE of the clear plastic . . . not on the OUTSIDE. Please tell us exactly what you are looking for - and what you want to do.
  8. Saw Trax

    Although I had a large shop, I opted to buy just the rails and frame of the Safety Speed Cut. I bolted it to the wall right next to the double doors, plumb and level, which took up very little floor space. I used it for years to cut MDO/ACM panels, plexiglass, aluminum plate, etc. There are many...
  9. "No More Walk-ins" - Good Idea, or Terrible Mistake?

    whooaaaa $10k is ridiculous. The guy that did mine was some home-based computer geek who did websites as a side gig to his "day job". and he was darned good at it. Yes, That was "my" good deal.
  10. Lens for Office Signs

    What quantity are you talking about ?? My local glass company carries frosted Plexi in a variety of finishes and thicknesses. Also, picture framers have "non-glare" plastic sheets. (pay the retail price).
  11. Regulations for the bucket truck operator in Vancouver

    I came very close to buying one of those things . . . then, I had a moment of clarity . . . no outriggers, bouncy wheels under stress, a fear of height, made me shy away. If you need a lift in your work, rent one with outriggers.
  12. Custom Canopy Vendor

    Are you in Aberdeen, SCOTLAND ??? That style of tent with a metal pipe frame is quite common here in my Central Florida area. Car detailers and flea markets use them in all sizes. https://www.walltentshop.com/collections/wall-tent-angle-kits...

  15. "No More Walk-ins" - Good Idea, or Terrible Mistake?

    To update the decision to go internet-based..... I paid $365.00 to have a professional website made. $375.00 in advance for a year of website hosting. A few weeks later, my very first sign that I sold through the website was to the Recreational Center, US Naval Air Station, Atsugi, Japan for...
  16. "No More Walk-ins" - Good Idea, or Terrible Mistake?

    The best business decision I made was going from a public front to strictly internet-based and shipping my work all over the world. It was a dark night, drinking all afternoon, made the decision, ripped the big sign right off the side of the building, cut it up with a circular saw, and put it in...
  17. Roland Plotter Pen

    strolling down the posts, I saw this one..... I think he meant to post it here as a reply. See Post #2. https://www.signs101.com/threads/plotter-pen-holder.177728/
  18. Roland Plotter Pen

    I had several of the plastic barrel felt-tip marker pens. I cannibalized a few of them and inserted the standard ink pen replacement into the plastic barrel held in place with hot-melt glue. (it ain't rocket science). Some trial and error may be required for your particular machine and...
  19. Roland Plotter Pen

    Get some from Amazon and compare the quality. Check the outside diameter of the pen body carefully with a micrometer in the millimeter (mm) size for fitment. I also bought some from Ebay that worked well for me in my old antique Roland PNC-950.
