My pleasure, glad I could help you out of the jam. It was easy, the artwork was done and it was ready to engrave. Thank You!

I've always been told HDU signs are $50 per sq. ft wholesale and $100 per sq. ft. retail as a general guideline.

That's correct, you can buy CS6, but CC or anything going forward is subscription only.

I wonder what's going to happen to people who swore off Adobe for going all subscription when Corel finally goes all subscription based. Maybe with X8?

You don't have to give them incentives, you just post up stretch goals. Stretch goals help generate more sales, so there would be no benefit to doing it later, rather than sooner. Maybe put up a $15,000, $25,000, and $35,000 stretch goal. Doesn't have to be anything major or expensive. Could be...

Yeah, great suggestion Biker, you need some stretch goals posted. I don't fly the planes, but after watching that R-2 thingy video, man, I want one of those :)

Do you "do" the Facebook thing? If so, post a link to it there. Post links to it everywhere you can. I think you're doing great so far. 41% 3 days in is pretty awesome.

That's a good question. I don't know the answer to that.

They do cut some of it with lasers, but the standard off the shelf lasers sold to sign shops isn't going to do the best. You could probably get it done, but it's nothing something you probably want to do for a high volume. Adrian, you should put that photo of the kit that's in the video on the...

Not with a laser. Carbon fiber sheets want to melt the edges on the laser.

Don't forget to use kicktraq to watch it all : https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/827919495/adrians-model-airplane-kit-cutting-project/ The projected total doesn't work too well early on, but it should work at time goes on.

A little bit of everything. Cut acrylic letters, ADA signs, fire evacuation maps, tenant signs, lobby directories, etc. We are on the cover of Sign Builder Illustrated this month. Take a look when you get a chance : http://issuu.com/signbuilderillustrated/docs/april_2014_signbuilder_magazine_iss

You seriously didn't use Arial as a font, did you? :design: Only kidding, I think it looks great compared to what you started with. It's neat to see the plane flying and see the kit, etc. Great job, that'll help people understand it for certain.

Lie to them. Nothing else will work. 3D printers are so slow they are very hard to make money with if you're offering a service. You can't charge someone 15 hours of labor for something simple. People just won't pay it. Now, if you are inventing things, then that's another story, they are very...

Overlay some text on the bottom, describing what you are selling, or the name of it the project, or anything. Just needs something other than a flying airplane. Looks good so far though! Nice work. You've come a long way in 24 hours from "I don't know how to do that" to here!

I seriously doubt that's a realistic expectation. As a machinist by trade, I can't say I've ever seen burr free cutting with a end mill (router bit). If you did get it to be nearly burr free, within a really short period of time, you'd have some burr appearing as the tool wears. Maybe someone...

It's just a commercial for your project. The better you make it, the better you'll do, in most cases. Tell them the details of the project, briefly. Get them excited about wanting to pledge.

If you can't make a video, you aren't allowed to own a laser. As an owner of multiple lasers, we are officially monitoring you now. No videos, no lasers allowed :)

go to fiver.com and pay someone $5 to do it for you!

You do realize a video can be a slideshow made of individual graphics, right? You are in the sign business, right? Make some "slides" and put them into a video explaining what they are getting and why you want their help. Seriously, I have seen some really great things from it and those people...
