The home run for me would be to find a US manufacturer in South Florida that cuts pre made blank signs at a reasonable price. My other alterantive is to order from China. They are by far the cheapest - but when you factor in shipping time and the cost to wait. I prefer ot buy in the US - pay more - but turn $$$ faster.

I hafta agree with bou. It now becomes a simple mathematical equation.

Your real answer is to buy the .040 sheets, shear them down yourself and get a corner rounder with several dies and then YOU become a supplier in your area. Otherwise, you're just dreaming. Why do you bother wanting the edges rounded ?? Sounds ridiculous.

Do you just troll the sites and pick on people
Or do you actually help anyone?

Or do you actually help anyone? Try not to

and for the record - my customer want rounded edges... JA! There is no such thing ya little twerp.

Do you just walk around aimlessly saying whatever pops into your head..... or just ask stupid things ??
Or do you actually have a job ??

For the record, you should try to educate the dummy who asked for rounded edges. DA!

Where are all these dumb frickin' b@st@rds coming from ?? Are they the leftovers from the recent spam blam ??

It is all about QTY, what are you deeming as bulk?
You order enough and then importing is an option,

I would look into buying full sheets of 48x96 and then having a metal fab shop shear cut and round the corners
or (what we do) take the full sheets to someone with a water jet cutter

Yeah, but will they round .040 edges ??

That's pretty much what I told him, but he thinks I'm trolling and hurting his feelings.

i was just going to type ALMOST exactly what gino did.
i don't think you will get a better answer.
i was going to suggest a couple places to purchase a shear, but, i guess not

i certainly agree with you that no one would consider grimco a reasonable price, though...

So, who are you, that you think I'm after you ?? You are nothing more than someone who's been banned and snuck back in. Aren't you the clever little one ?? I've been baby sitting our one printer the last few days, so I have more time than usual to be watching here, along while doing other things. I feel honored that you think I'm after a non-member as important as yourself.

Grimco, Nglantz and all sign supply companies will give you a quote with discounts if ordering blanks in bulk. Grimco came out cheaper when I ordered (200) 12x18 .040 w/ .75 radius and holes drilled where I determined.
