msnk 0 Posted April 23, 2013 I was asked to order some signs for the shop front, went to some bussiness asked around for prices. I was like WTF OMG! As I am quite good with computers, photoshop, corel etc. decided to find out 'how hard can it be'. Ebay'ed a cheap second hand hardly used cutter, some vinyl and youtube'ed while i waited. Done the shop front, even sold some stickers on ebay. Its not hard at all, but time consuming. Now its not like a hobby or something, just a little money on a side. The top green is vinyl wrap. White letters with black borders and yellow letters with black borders (layered). The bottom green is just paint on some old bussiness ads, and those boards will be removed. Just after I've done the yellow window signs, they decided to have some yellow blinds as well. That was funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OWJones 1,981 Posted April 23, 2013 Its not hard at all, but time consuming. Shhh.... there are still 11,462 people in the US who haven't yet bought a vinyl cutter and tried to make a go of being a sign maker. If you tell them how easy it is, we'll all be out of work... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted April 24, 2013 I'll let you in on a secret OW the only ones truly making money in the sign business are the ones selling all the stuff to us suckers... I meant entrepreneurs. Jay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msnk 0 Posted May 10, 2013 Are these for your own business or did someone actually pay you for that? As this was my first job and for my friend, he bought only all supplies needed, and payed my travel expenses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
