  1. YESCO employee falls 100' off MGM sign...

    Raises a million questions. The article said his co-workers said he was wearing his harness. If he was, did it break? If so, had it been inspected recently? Harnesses don't just break. If it was faulty, I'm betting a lawyer is already drooling and eyeing YESCO like a ribeye. It will be...
  2. YESCO employee falls 100' off MGM sign...

    ...and lives.
  3. insurance for installs, who do you use?

    ugh....I understand the need for it but I hate paying the premium. Mine is a bit over $2500 per year. I forget who it's through. I try to forget about it all together.
  4. Installing Gatorboard to Walls

    The Command Strips would be my choice because they don't damage the wall and they hold extremely well.
  5. Installing Gatorboard to Walls

    Forgot to mention...after hanging the above, I hung numerous other panels for the same customer. I used these on the panels below. They work very well and are what I would use in the future...
  6. Installing Gatorboard to Walls

    This may be helpful. The method in Post #5 is how I installed the panels below. Zero issues to date.
  7. Installing Gemini bronze plaque next week.

    If it's stud-mounted and installed with a good amount of silicone - someone is going to have have their work cut out trying to steal it. Any additional adhesive is great for extra measure (epoxy, etc.).
  8. Corner Piece of Frame

    Might compare it to ABC or EMS. ...jhiii beat me on ABC :banghead:
  9. I'm not a computer expert, but...

    Gotchya...thank you for sharing. We'll see how it goes. I have a couple of other laptops (HP & Toshiba) that still function perfectly and I'll back my important info up to multiple sources in case anything does happen to the refurb'd Toshiba.
  10. I'm not a computer expert, but...

    Any particular reason?
  11. 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
  12. Is Translucent Vinyl Necessary?

    Exactly. This is why I said "black is black" isn't the case. Trans and opaque black do not light well.
  13. Fixing sign panels to marble?

    He's asking how you access the electrical. If it's illuminated there should be a way to service/access the electrical.
  14. Fixing sign panels to marble?

    Hard to tell what's going on by those pictures. Take those caps off and try to see how it's built.
  15. Who makes this banner frame?

    The frame will likely be a snap frame. Looks kind of like Banner Grip, but I don't know if they use that ribbed framing...? Here are their instructions.
  16. Is Translucent Vinyl Necessary?

    I think your first concern needs to be what the customer is going to be pleased with. "Black is black" isn't the case. Trans, opaque and blockout all give different effects. If you use translucent or opaque vinyl, the face is going to look crappy (in my opinion) at night. Use a black blockout...
  17. Pretty cool idea...

    February will be here before you know it. Yesterday I believe it was April. Today we're almost at the end of July.
  18. Well, I finally did it, and it's finally put together...

    Awesome, wish i had room for one. I would think with an acrylic enclosure, it would dust over really fast to the point where you could no longer see your work. I would definitely go with a dust collection system of some sort.
  19. Rough Sandstone Face + Gemini Lettering

    There are different ways to do this obviously. I prefer the following method: 1.) Tape up your paper pattern. 2.) Determine the highest point of the wall (the portion that sticks out further than the rest) that falls within your pattern area. 3.) Draw a large circle (12" or so) on your...
  20. Looking for good price on Standoffs

    Agreed...very nice product, good prices and super fast shipping. Just received my Outwater catalog, so need to compare prices. Their stuff looks nice though.
