  1. Illuminated Fab Letters - Installation

    6 ft final hook-up is pretty standard but it's honestly determined by local/state sign code. Did the GC pull the permits? I'd get copies of the submittals they used to pull them. It may be worth it to sub out to a fully licensed install team. May not be a money maker but at least you won't lose...
  2. Subscription Mouse!

    Honestly that's why I loved CorelDraw back in the day. Record or write a VBA script that I'd just assign to a Gkey or mouse button. I know at one point a long time ago Bert Monroy was working with Logitech and Adobe developing a 3 tier puck for tool selection/effects....back on topic...
  3. Subscription Mouse!

    The Corsair K95 with a Razer Naga or Basilisk. Gives me all the G key macros to my hearts content. While the new Naga is a bigger I do like I can switch out the thumb controls as well as not have to have Howard Hughs nails to hit 5. :)
  4. One-step away from buying a channel letter bending machine.

    Thanks a ton to you and your team James!
  5. Need Help Canva Files Won't Open In Corel

    When opening Canva files you will almost always get a corrupt or missing font dialogue. They don't use licensed fonts meant for distribution. So even if you were to drop a pdf into AI or indesign without having to edit it, your rips won't be able to handle it on output. When I was doing prepress...
  6. QR code will not print

    Weld it before you send it.
  7. Suggestions on how to make this glass plaque?

    "While it's a truly dumb idea, it totally is possible to adhere a 40lb piece of glass, 2'x3', with just VHB tape or 467mp. Should you do it? Not unless you like looking through glass at adhesive..." Yeah that's kind of where I was leaning with it. You'd literally have to VHB the entire back and...
  8. Suggestions on how to make this glass plaque?

    Their notes don't make sense. I would submit a Request for Information (RFI) for more clarity. Have them define frosted, as most times, they are really wanting an etch look. If you have samples of etch & frosted, I'd submit them for their approval. This biggest red flag is how this is mounted...
  9. Produced graphics storage ideas

    4'x8' sheet metal panels mounted to the wall vertically. I've used everything from bar magnets to multiple clipboard clamps to hang prints. That way you're at most, doing a couple of soft accordion folds for prints longer than your ceiling height. I made up some magnetic dry erase panels that I...
  10. One-step away from buying a channel letter bending machine.

    I just started with a company that has 3 SDS (2 benders & 1 trimcap) and so far so good (programmed and ran a CLN & Accubend's in the past). As a programmer I do have questions in regards to fine tuning our DXF's on Export from non-Enroute software. We also recently upgraded a CPU and need to...
  11. Finding jobs with new UV Printer

    Does your UV print white? If so, back lit graphics or second surface window graphics. Does your CNC have an oscillating blade, drag knife, and a way to register prints? If so, event graphics using honey comb/foam core. The last flat bed I was involved with their biggest FB products were 24" x...
