  1. Identify Installation Hardware

    Thank you all who have helped me out here. I will continue searching through the different sources you have identified. At the end of the day do the clamps need to be precisely these type...no. But I am adding to a sign post that has existing signs on it and if I can easily find the same...
  2. Identify Installation Hardware

    Hey all, I am looking for a particular piece of hardware and am just not sure if these were custom made. I can get them made...but was hoping not to have to reinvent the wheel. As you can see in my photos, the track/ channel that was used, I'm told is Unistrut. After searching through...
  3. Travel Time and Charges

    Yeah...in most cases I wouldn't dream of giving up prime time...and to boot I have to drive on a Friday afternoon which typically sucks on top of the regular commute. But it's for a good customer who has just given us another major part of her business that she was doing at another vendor...
  4. Travel Time and Charges

    Hey All, I was curious how much people add for trip charges? Do you charge by the hour, by the miles? And then at what rate? As a general question I would like to know your thoughts. Then, I have a special case where I am subcontracting some work out and in order to save some precious...
  5. Shooting at a sign shop...

    Another senseless tragedy but when I heard it on the news and they said it was a "Sign Shop", I couldn't help but feel a bond. Somehow I know there were some really great, kind, creative people working there and for it to end like this. Just sad. We have a great community in this business...

  10. Static Cling Outdoors?

    Great info everyone. Thank you for your input! The next option was to do something more permanent but the customer is hoping to reuse these next year. It is a 3 week promotion and then they are down. I will do these on white cling. I print solvent so that is what I would go with. I would...
  11. Static Cling Outdoors?

    Hi All, I haven't run into this yet, and wondered if you can tell me your experience. I have to print a Static Cling, rather large (4'x6') and it needs to go on the outside of the clients windows. I say it has to, because the inside of glass is tinted and we are covering over a logo for...
  12. customer wants .pdf what would you do?

    I agree with what a lot of you have said. Even before I posted this, I sent the customer the file they requested. It most certainly is not worth burning the bridge. I have faith that I will continue to do business with them, however, I know that they have a previous relationship with another...
  13. customer wants .pdf what would you do?

    Ok...so I am all for the "drop .jpg file into a .pdf". I get that, because as you all say, we get that as "artwork" all the time! I guess the problem I am having is more about who owns what when it comes to design work. UCMJ22...you said it best, and I have had that dilemma before as well...
  14. customer wants .pdf what would you do?

    Not sure how to handle this. We designed some signs and a reward card that we printed as a business card for a customer. They paid for all of it, and were charged a design fee for the cards. Now they emailed me asking for the .pdf so they can run them off a copier they have instead of me...
  15. An Easy One....

    FRED....thank you! I thought for sure it was something I could pull from my memory that came from my computer fonts back 15 years ago. Eagle Book is not ringing a bell at all! I am not sure why my sample came in so small either. Sorry about that! Thank you so very much. ~L
  16. An Easy One....

    better? Not arial. Note the pointy "N" and the very round "O".
  17. An Easy One....

    I know this is an easy one...it is just not coming to me. DUH.:thankyou:
  18. Scam Vendor??? Have you received this????

    it appears to be 500.
  19. Scam Vendor??? Have you received this????

    I like to give the benefit of the doubt. Obviously I asked and took the time to post so that if someone here had heard of them...and had a good experience....I would most likely be ordering their product. If I felt 100% positive it was a scam....would I be here looking to get opinions that in...
  20. spelling issue question

    With any design/setup charges we expect to go 'round once or twice. It is just the nature of the beast most often. However....the reason you are sending a proof is precisely for that reason. They are ok'ing the sign. Especially in this case...it was initially their mistake....and in the...
