  1. $4500 CNC....even cuts concrete

    As a stone blaster, I'm still sticking to my guns....or sould I say my nozzle? I'm skeptical of how it will handle some of the well-known issues of concrete such as flatness (or lack thereof), aggregate, cracks, porosity, etc... Oxidation of the fresh cut concrete will soon render the...
  2. Website Effectiveness

    Built mine using Microsoft Front Page...it's simple, looks home made but does the job. Since I already have Illustrator and Photoshop, I'm entertaining the idea of getting Adobe Dreamweaver. It appears to be complicated, but I'm in it for the long haul and will work at it over a period of...

  15. CAD files - straight segments

    I'm using ACAD 2000i and Adobe Illustrator CS5 and it doesn't appear to be an issue...even when saving an ACAD file that hasn't had a REGEN, all my arcs come in smooth. AutoCAD and Illustrator (and SignLab) work together extremely well together. Have somebody with Illy import the same file...
  16. Burning letters

    Sandblasting. JB
  17. Business Structure for Sign Shop

    There are advantages and disadvantages for each business structure. One provides a little more "freedom" while the other offers "protection". I strongly suggest you research your options and plan accordingly. If it were me, I'd lean toward the LLC. JB
