  1. Thankfully it's not ours...

    First storm of springtime rolled through yesterday, not massive, or severe, maybe 40-45mph winds, should have handled that easily. It took a 16'x16' head off a pylon at a large truck dealership, flex face didn't blow out, it just took the whole thing down. Looks like the interior center support...

  3. News Beware -Starboard Group

    the kind of posts I hate making. Just a heads up to everyone, we've been doing work for the Starboard Group based in Florida off and on, and towards the end of last year we started having issues getting paid. They filed bankruptcy in November, owing us money. Today they contacted us to do a...

    For Mimaki flatbed users, what sort of success do you have with direct printing on powdercoated metal? Good? Bad? Any particular inkset better for it than others? We currently supply decals for a customer to apply to their products, but they're working on something that would increase quantities...

  7. Our most valued employee has passed.

    After years of retirement, my best buddy "Ozzy" didn't like me leaving every day again, so he went to the shop with me almost every day. He was quiet, kind, gentle, even had a girlfriend there (owners have a miniature schnauzer that they started bringing in too). He put in as many hours as I...

    Was once a member until I retired in 2016. Mama finally decided she wanted me out of her hair, one of the oldest sign companies in the area just happened to need someone to design and print.
