  1. SDS Drill..................

    Hilti is overkill (pricewise) for drilling 3/16" holes. That Makita should serve your needs just fine.
  2. Tx State House Bill 1352 & Tx State Senate Bill 803

    The information is accurate. Stings operations have been and are being conducted to catch individuals & shops who are quoting electrical sign jobs and are not/do not employ a Master Sign Electrician.
  3. Super Mario Bros.

    Now do Zelda!
  4. Anyone able to do this

    Cool sign.
  5. Quote for pair of large banners

    I've used 4over for banners and was happy with what I received. My next stop is Signs2Trade for comparison. I believe their prices are cheaper than 4over.
  6. New to backlit signage

    Most of your questions will be answered by performing a standard site survey. Visit the site, bring some tools, see how the sign is manufactured, how it comes apart, etc. Measure the size of the face and as mentioned, sell them a new face with new graphics.
  7. installing 27' x 200' banner on building

    SignComp's tension frame would work. But that's a long time for a banner to be up. Also, most municipalities won't allow a banner for anywhere near that long. Not sure if you've looked into that or not, but that would be my first stop - confirm whether it's allowed or not.
  8. Work in progress...

    I don't get why people do that. If a company name was 'My Three Sons Moving Co.', using three suns for the logo wouldn't make sense. I think it makes the business look unprofessional...possibly linguistically challenged. Not the look I'd want especially for a tattoo business. Again, not your...
  9. dibond expansion?

    ACM expansion is nearly identical to aluminum.
  10. Airport sign falls down-kills boy

    This isn't an engineer's issue. Signs are frequently estimated one way, then engineered differently than they were estimated, and then manufactured differently than they were estimated or engineered. It happens all of the time. Unless there's something not obvious being shown in that video, this...
  11. Another SDS (combo) deal...

    I'll preface this by saying I have no clue how either of these will perform - but I'm pretty hopeful. The reviews are really good. This deal includes a cordless SDS rotary hammer and a cordless oscillating tool. If you've never used one, the oscillating tools are life savers. Originally the...
  12. Anyone else affected...?

    Thanks everyone. Markus, my fam is fine, but there may be groups set up to accept donations down there. Thanks for offering!
  13. This should end your day with a smile..............

    Our Dachshund is my office assistant...
  14. Cruise ship wrap

    My wife and I have vacationed up there. I'm very jealous of where you live. :) We just spent a week up in McCall a few months back. Makes it hard to want to go home.
  15. Anyone else affected...?

    Yeah, I can't imagine just simply losing everything except what you're wearing. They said the community is being extremely generous, so that's good. Here's a picture of where the condos used to be:
  16. Anyone else affected...?

    This is my brother (the bald dude) in this video. Their condos caught on fire on Saturday. It apparently started with a brush fire and spread to the condos. He got the kids out and his wife was at the store, but they lost everything - clothes, videos, photos, wedding & engagement rings, cash -...
  17. Replacing signs mounted with anti-theft bolts

    Good catch. On a drive rivet, the center pin can just be punched through and then the rivet can be pried out.
  18. Replacing signs mounted with anti-theft bolts

    They're pretty pricey. You might want to pick up some from Harbor Freight. Their good for throw away stuff like you're doing / if you don't use them a lot. Then again, a regular bit will work. Not sure why I specified a step bit. :Sleeping:
  19. Identify Installation Hardware

    Pretty sure it's a rocker from an LS1.:Big Laugh JK... There are lots of I beam clamps from the various maunufactures...maybe replace that with one that's easier to find...?
  20. Replacing signs mounted with anti-theft bolts

    Drill out the back side of the post with a step bit large enough to access the nut.
