  1. For the DeWalt fans...

    Just a heads-up, the 20v oscillating tool is now available. Just ordered mine, but the only place I could find it is Acme Tools. The price for the kit is supposed to be $199 but they have it marked down to $169. The bare tool is at it's normal price of $129. It's definitely worth $40 more for...
  2. Kickstarter project you guys might be interested in...

    I backed this...I think it's a pretty good deal for $99 (+ $15 shipping to the US). This will come in pretty handy on surveys for raceway matches, etc. Figured a lot of you might be interested as well. click
  3. Embroidery questions...

    I have some shirts I purchased off Amazon....60% cotton, 40% polyester, fairly thin. I'm going to get my logo embroidered on them but don't have a clue what's needed for embroidering. I'm going to use a local shop, so they'll obviously know what's needed but I'd like to get a little educated...
  4. Trello calendar(s)?

    I haven't searched a bit on here due to time. Just posting this while I have a minute. So I created a Trello account and really like the way it's set up...with one exception. On a mobile device (phone) it doesn't appear that Trello offers a calendar. Your only option is to sync items with due...
  5. Recommended vendors for stop signs, loitering, smoking, etc...?

    I've dealt with Sa-So for a while. Curious what other reputable vendors there are.... Thanks!
  6. An easy Wordpress question...

    ...if you know the answer, that is. This is driving me crazy because I just did this in the past few weeks but now I can't remember what I did. So my end goal here is to have the PORTFOLIO menu item not be a link, but when you click on it, "DESIGN" and "INSTALLATIONS" appears as a drop-down...
  7. A few recent installs...

    Nothin' fancy although it was cool being able to do the Dealey plaza ones (where JFK was shot). Installed five sets of letters there so far and have three more to go. The Winchester letters were actually a relocate. I was supposed to make a pattern but the maintenance guy took them down the...
  8. Measuring items in a photo...

    Not sure where else to post this. Can anyone recommend software (and the procedure) to obtain dimensions of an object if you know the dimensions of another object in the photo? ie: I have a photo of a set of channel letters. I need to determine the approximate dimensions of the letters (HxW)...
  9. Name plates for cubicle walls...

    Some cubicle walls are solid core and adhering nameplates with VHB tape works pretty well. Some are a hollow core with perimeter framing which allows the fabric to be pushed in....which in turn doesn't work well with pressure sensitive VHB tape. Does anyone know of a supplier/product that would...
  10. For those of you who spend time on construction sites...

    Free hard hat.
  11. Yellotools BodyGuard Knife

    So I've seen it mentioned on here a couple of times and I believe it was all good things said about it. Are there other alternatives or is this 'the one' to get? Seems like it would get stuck to the back of the vinyl....no?
  12. YESCO employee falls 100' off MGM sign...

    ...and lives.
  13. I'm not a computer expert, but...

    ...this is a pretty good deal if anyone is in the market for a laptop. Intel i7 8GB DDR3 750GB HDD (I'll be replacing with a SSD) Windows 8 (Need to see if I like it. If not, back to Windows 7) Illuminated Keyboard Link to laptop Link to specs
  14. Pretty cool idea...

    I'm going to order a couple of different sizes of these. Great idea for a work bench or "sawhorse" that easily collapses for storage or transport. "The Centipede"
  15. Tech stuff...

    Thought I'd share the tech part of my weekend. I'm pretty happy with both of these, especially considering their benefits to my line of work. Thought maybe some of you may be interested...they were both 'new to me' tech stuff. 1.) Sony SmartWatch: Kind of hard to have a techie watch not look...

  17. Recent work...

    Using today for a catch-up-on-invoicing/quotes day. Figured I'd post a few recent jobs.
  18. Wall Sign...

    This wasn't my job, I just assisted a couple of friends on the install. It was a pretty enjoyable install and turned out pretty nice. Although I have to say - I have NEVER seen so many oblivious/indifferent people in my life. We had an aerial lift and at one point a crane truck and had the...
  19. Vinyl Removal: Heat Gun vs. Steamer

    I've never used a steamer for vinyl removal. I have a sizable job coming up and would like to hear the opinions of those who have used both as far as which is more effective. This particular job is fortunately indoors, so the vinyl may actually come off fairly easily. But if not, I may try the...
  20. Blind fasteners for foam board...

    I'm needing fasteners for 1'' foam board (4'x8'). These panels are being installed flush on an interior wall. The wall paper is textured and is somewhat 'plastic' feeling to the touch. Normally I would use silicone and VHB tape but silicone is not an option (customer spec) and I'm not...
