bigjimt replied to Booper's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
Yup! Always a better deal......I charge a fair price, very fair most of the time... but then I am Retired and only work out of a large Flea Market here In Fla. So I hear alot of bull........... I just say this is my Price.....and the others know what there work is worth........but I think mine is worth this price......always a cheap 0 out there.........this is my 2 cents... -

The air earser uses a fine fine sand almost like flower. Pasche is the way to go if you want to use one of these but they are not cheap more along the $60 and up price. Carl I use a Pasche also...... the sand is sicla very fine makes a very nice frosted look. Have used it for years.......like about 10 years....

I also cut Dibond sheets wits a fine tooth saw........works well also with a 15 tpi Blade on a scroll saw for cut outs...... -
I have been a woodworker and primative sign maker for 25 years , mostly as a hobby. I am 54 years old. I have not purchased a machine yet, it seems this would be good place to get that advice. I would like to use as a stencil cutter mostly, so I can personalize a sign or furniture piece, also can I use a software such as corel draw to do the graphics and lettering design. Thanks, Mark Welcome Mark........ US CUTTER can fix you up.......I have a MH-721 that works its butt off 5 days a week...One small problem at the start........and then Ken took care of that .... Its been a good workhorse for almost a year now........getting ready to purchase another one soon..........cuts better than my OM-60 that cost much more...... Very good ......and Coreldraw and signblazer will get you started....... then think Flexi...later

5-6 drops of liquid soap ( I use Wisk) 1/4 cup ISOPROPYL (rubbing) alcohol 70% to speed up the drying. do NOT use denatured alcohol. It will diseolve the adhesive. This works for me and has for years.......But I like Rapid Tac for some smaller jobs...

Soooooooo........... Let me ask you, do you all everytime you want to use some of the clipart that you buy.....write and get permission, as you know if its not in black & white its not anything........and if it is in black and white it may be ify. Like if you use a Coka Cola logo.........you are to first call coke tell them and buy a license to use it....one time Hope you all are a Legal as you sound........but with 50 years in business......I doubt it.......Oh and don't use logo till you get license in writing........even if this means you loose the job........lets stay Good........since there are a million other signmakers that will do it while you are waiting.......and I know well thats them, and some of you ........ I am not being smart but lets face it if all was perfect it would be nice, but since almost everything has been drawn or a fax to it.........its maybe hard to be always so orginial as not look a little like someone else work, its all beem done in some form or another.....

Help pricing colorplast signs
bigjimt replied to jheyne's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
Hi all, I've got a customer who wants to get some vinyl put on colorplast signs. He says he found somewhere to get the blanks for like .99 and wants me to quote putting vinyl on them. Size is 24" X 18" each. I'm not sure how to quote this one. I'd like to give him a qty discount on larger orders, so if anyone can help, it would be much appreciated. breakdowns on like 12, 24, 50, 100 pcs. Well I have been this business along time.......and you can't do more cheeper..... takes just as much material and time to do each one....... its not like screen printing so if you want to get cheep have them printed for a few dollars each........ but check it out almost all have a screen charge, setup fee, and art if any at a fee........so do check for best price -
