Thanks! This is a great idea!

I was previously running a SP-300V and used these instructions to install VW 5.5.1 on W10 last year with no trouble (yes, I know it's a guide for W7, but it worked). This guide specifically says to NOT install drivers - check out Page 5, Step 2. May not be applicable to your printer, or newer...

It's the sign maker's version of a dad joke - ha!

I totally agree. Our Historical Research Council and Architectural Review Board may not, though. They don't like the look of having a pair of one-sided signs back-to-back on a single post, which is why these signs are so screwed up in the first place. Ugh...

What about this? This is the idea our brainstorming session came up with. 1. Cut off the old post top. 2. Drill a 3/4" diameter hole through the post about 4" down. 3. Recip cut a new 3/4" notch for an MDO panel. 4. Re-miter the top. What do you guys think? Assuming I scale the signs down to...

Yeah, that would definitely be easier. I have asked about changing up this style of post for the few single-sided signs, but haven't heard back yet. I was hoping to also present a better option for the double-sided signs, but the brackets I'm seeing essentially just work the same way. How would...

I have been tasked with replacing some old double-sided parking lot signs that were slotted into wood posts. The signs were 30"h x 24"w x .063 aluminum - it's no wonder they all bent, snapped, or fell off. They were only being held on with a few inches of post. Does anyone know of any type of...

We just went through something similar here. My employer has been unable to attract or retain employees for years so they commissioned an outside agency to study our pay rates compared to the rest of our area. They did this at the same time they rolled out a new merit-based employee evaluation...

So, am I the only one curious about the new restaurant? You don't have to share the logo or the name - but is it just another mexican joint? A pizza place? Coffee bar?

Do you have a takeup unit? Don't know if this would work, but could you steal a core holder from the takeup and test your uneven temp theory? Maybe you could shift the material to the other side to see if it helped? Not exactly like this, but you get the idea...

I can also vouch for those AC Infinity cloudline fans - they work incredibly well! I've had one running for a few years straight without issue.

Yupo Octopus? It's paper, stickable, and compatible with solvent inks: https://yupousa.com/what-is-yupo/yupo-grades/yupo-octopus/

Yes! We have a big shared roll-off dumpster outside the shop and there is nothing more enjoyable than chucking stuff into that sucker. Throwing stuff away is so much fun.

Not sure about embroidery-specific fonts, but this one looks like Boston Ballpark: https://letterheadfonts.com/fonts/bostonballpark.php

You could also use Illustrator's stroke attributes to get you part of the way there:

I don't know about the thickness (mils vs. cardstock "weights") but you may want to check out Yupo. Take a look at their Illuminate - it's waterproof polypropylene suitable for UV and screen inks. https://yupousa.com/what-is-yupo/yupo-grades/yupoilluminate/ If not, contact them and see what...

Hire a graffiti writer to paint in the new name?

Have you tried the 3D/extrude tools in Illustrator? https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/creating-3d-objects.html

Ha - did you also see this past weekend's This Old House? They installed an elevator into a residential home for accessibility and the elevator walls were installed as entire panels and attached from above and below.
