  1. Fixing Signs in Tears of the Kingdom

    Is anyone else playing the new Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom? There's a character called Addison who shows up throughout the game trying to hold up a sign with only one post. You have to use the new UltraHand ability to attach some boards or posts so the sign won't fall over. There is...
  2. So.............................................................................

    I'm so jealous of all the space you have! Are those composting bins/barrels in the background? We're covid gardeners, so we only have a few years of real experience, but have come to really enjoy it. This year we stuck with our staple favorites: tomatoes, jalapenos, chilis, mint, basil, catnip...
  3. Feed Motor error 0008

    We have an SP-300V that also gets feed motor errors. I just have to spool out a bit of vinyl so the motor is pulling from the slack and not the heavy roll. I'd also be interested in the fix if there is one. I just assumed it was due to the age of the machine and wear on the motor. Sucks that...
  4. Has Artificial Intelligence gone too far?

    My wife showed me this one last night. After the first watch, I thought, wow, that's pretty good. But then you start to see all the weirdness..
  5. Print Provider for Non-profit?

    I hadn't thought about the relationship building aspect - that's a good point. Even if we don't save a ton, we're still freed up to do other work and could even ask about doing work in trade. Thanks!
  6. Print Provider for Non-profit?

    You're right. We were hoping to upgrade our printer this year, but couldn't find any donors. Stinks sometimes when you want to do something but can't without a donation...
  7. Print Provider for Non-profit?

    Thank you. I didn't realize there was a whole sector of suppliers catering to schools, churches and other non-profits. ‍
  8. Print Provider for Non-profit?

    Good morning folks, does anyone know of any 'for the trade' print providers / wholesalers who will sell to non-profits? I'm an internal shop for an NPO and I've had a few projects come up recently (bulk coro signs) that would be better suited to outsource, but providers like Signs365 and...
  9. Shout Out to the Vector Doctor!

    Just wanted to shout out the Vector Doctor for the big assist this morning. After requesting a vector logo from a designer and receiving a zipped package of files full of embedded images, I reached out to the Vector Doctor for help. After a few minutes I receive an email apologizing that he...
  10. Exterior Paint for Historic Signs?

    Hoping for any recommendations on exterior, water-based paints suitable for re-creating and preserving historic signs (see attached for examples). Ronan Aquacote or Nova Color acrylics? Both seem to be suitable alternatives to leaded, oil based 1-Shot. The Nova Color line seems more geared...
  11. Need Help How to find Rep / Dealer in Virginia?

    Good morning, How can I go about finding a new sign rep and/or dealer in Virginia? I recently took a position to basically re-establish a defunct in-house shop and am in the process of sourcing materials, tools, equipment, etc. Specifically, I'm hoping to find a local person to help find...
  12. Font Help Please

    Yes! Thank you so much!
  13. Font Help Please

    Can anyone identify this font? The Pizzadude fonts are all close, but not quite right. Thanks!
  14. Easy to Read Blackletter?

    Does anyone know of any other easy to read blackletter fonts? I have some informational and wayfinding signs to work on in a German-themed area and I'm trying to find that sweet spot between easily legible while still appropriate. Kodex Regular and Pirata One are close to what I'm after. Rhein...
  15. How do I get back into the Sign Community

    Thanks! Just subscribed to Signs of the Times and registered for the virtual ISA Sign Expo. These look to both be good resources for current info and news. Do any of you have thoughts on visiting local shops? I'm technically not a competitor, so would other shop owners be open to that sort of...
  16. How do I get back into the Sign Community

    Thank you for the replies! I guess I don't have a specific target - but I would want to learn more about the growing segments in the industry. The one thing I do enjoy about where I am now is the blend of analog and digital. I have degree in fine art and started making signs just before the era...
  17. How do I get back into the Sign Community

    Good morning, I posted this a couple weeks ago in the newbie help forum but didn't receive any views or replies. Apologies for trying again but I think this forum may yield some good results and help point me in the right direction. I'm seeking advice on the best ways to re-engage with the sign...
  18. Font Identification

    Any luck on this one? It looks like it's been auto traced and the ampersand is throwing me off, but I found a couple close matches: https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/eurotypo/brighten/round-italic/ https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/artisan-studio/plants/clean/
  19. New Theme Park Sign Maker

    Wow, a fellow sign maker from Hampton Roads - greetings! I checked out your Facebook. Very nice work. I especially like the series of beach house signs with the lighthouses. Were those all houses owned by the same property manager or something?
