  1. Signs 101 Membership Qualifications

    I voted NO! I'll keep it short and sweet. I have lost two customers (both local grills) that I made menu boards and graphics for. I gave them good prices and they both called for replacment graphics, later they cancelled saying that their beer supplier, who has an in-house sign shop, had...

    I use alcohol or window cleaner. The window cleaner has to be ammonia free. I buy it at Sam's Club or COSTCO. Again it has to be ammonia free, as for the wipes I use the cheapest plain white paper towel I can buy.

  9. Who has one of These? Do they work this well?

    I have the neat scanner, bought it at Sam's Club. The scanner works great, but I use it to scan to PDF most of the time. The software that comes with it has some great features but I find it somewhat cumbersome. I carry the scanner in my bag all the time, it works of the usb port and needs no...

  12. What material is pylon and how do i remove this sign blank?

    One thing to keep in mind is that in most states even re-lettering the face of an existing sign cabinet requires a state electrical sign license. That is even is you don't touch the electrical. However, opening the cabinet to replace the acrylic with a new one goes beyond just re-lettering...
  13. Giclee printing... Where to begin

    I'm using a Canon IPF8100s, is the 8 inks model, but it prints right on the spot when it comes to colors. Most of the time I print directly from the photoshop plug-in instead of the rip. I have started doing all of my indoor work on the Canon instead of solvent. The color gamut is better and...

    Creative Banner is reliable and has good products but they are expensive, most of my customers are not willing to pay much. Advertising Ideas www.inflate.net has good prices, fast turnaround. Call and let them know your buying to re-sell and they will give you dealer pricing, no minimums.
  17. Digital Printer for Posters?

    If your thinking of indoor or short term outdoor posters Canon IPF series is very good, the "S" series. I have the IPF 8000s eight color, it works great. If you don't plan on printing a lot it's a great printer it is more resistant to head clogging as long as you keep the power on. On the...

    Please don't get me wrong, I wish him all the best and I too hope he finally succeeds in life, I just felt really bad for his 92 year old mother who was waiting to see him at baggage claim. I finally saw the reunion on the evening news...on CBS...and his mom looked elated and so did he. I just...
  19. homeless man with radio voice

    I hope he is sincere...but as of this morning he's just another jerk caught in the spotlight. He cried on tv that he was finally going to see his mother today. When he got off the plane his mother was waiting for him at the luggage area with CBS. Instead this jerk decided to go with another...
