    Sounds like you can do whatever you want here. Some panels are this and some are that. The panels are brushed somethinorothers. You get it from a sign supplier in sheets and slice it to size, slap your stickie on along with some double stickie on the back and you are on your way.

    These are the problems you run into when you are a replicator instead of being a creator. If you want to make signs from other people junk you just have to deal with it. In a perfect world you would get files that are perfect and setup so all you have to do is hit the print button.
  19. In general, how much does your printer cost you besides ink?

    I really don't care what a piece of equipment costs. The only thing important is if it is making you money.
  20. Cut out letters from ACM?

    In my shop it cost the customer more if they want to use their material. Think about it. Go to the customer and pick the sheet up. Order some red paint and rollers. Paint the board and hope it sticks and looks good. A new sheet of red acm cost $75. I would happily spend $75 to not have to deal...
