Curious to know what most are doing about it?

More of the story as told to me, guy with the truck gets a call from a former co worker who has also gone solo and started his own company. Says he has been hired to remove the EMC and could he (the guy with the truck) meet him there Saturday morning for a crane lift. The guy has just bought the truck and getting started so he could use the money so he agrees. They remove the first side, load it in a pickup truck and determine that there is not enough room for the other side so guy leaves with the first side to go get another pickup. Leaves guy with the crane (who does not have a clue they are stealing it) sitting there waiting on him to return. Guy eventually shows back up with an empty pickup, they load the second side and leave. Guy with the crane leisurely goes across the street to a convenience store to buy a drink and then goes home. This is a national chain fast food restaurant, broad daylight and they are open. Nobody goes out to ask what they are doing the entire time. It is really bizarre, did he not know those things are serialized and what is he going to do about software, radios, ect?

As i understand it, that is not the case.

I have a job there and need someone to install. Anybody know a good one?

They "allegedly" stole an EMC. They have been identified and an arrest warrant has been issued.

Local PD has asked me to try and help identify it's owner.

Can you use any generic 12 volt 60 watt power supply with these?

I would love to add another truck and would have no problem keeping it busy. Finding another qualified crew has been impossible. We have put adds in the local paper, craigslist ect and almost no qualifed responces. It's depressing.

Could you apply for three 7' x 4' signs mounted next to each other?

Looks like these folks are now out of business.

Any recomendations?

I signed up with MET a few months ago, everything went smoothly, no problems. Have had some tough inspectors pass them with no questions. All in all, I highly recommend MET.

We also use the GE Powerstrip modules, you can make it as bright as you want by just adding modules untill you get what you are looking for.

Plus one on Allied, ask for Patrick Stieber. Patrick Stieber Allied Signs, Inc. 33650 Giftos Drive Clinton Twp, MI 48035 586-791-7900 - Phone 586-791-7788 - Fax patrick@alliedsignsinc.com

Eastern Metal Supply, I belive they have what you are looking for.

Do we need to call the fire dept? How long ya''ll been up there?

Oh well, back to the drawing board. But what about a "do it yourself at home" vasectomy machine... hmmmmm?

Sounds good, but a wireless LED power supply would be better. I have heard that someone is working on a wireless laptop/cell phone charger so it may not be that "far fetched"

No problem here... make mine a Crown and 7... oh and ... WAR EAGLE!

Chill out Brian, no offense intended. I do not claim to be an expert on everything, but I know as much about the sign industry as you probably do the printing industry. I just found it ironic (the attitude you were giving signgirlie) was her comments maybe hitting a little too close to home, hmmm? And "yes" I am the president of YESCO, thanks

Well you cant blame a guy for a little white lie. It is hard to find good sign people that know what they are doing and don't require micromanagement. It is so refreshing to just give a guy a work order and he/she "gets it done". I have run into some people like your boss, people who have been successful in other business and think they can buy/open a sign shop and "correct" all those dumb sign people (employees) who actually do know what they are doing. Besides, you have to question the sanity of someone who "wants" to be in this business. Oh, and on the chubby guy on this forum: I think you hit way too close to home for him, sounds like he is a lot like your boss.

You want to relocate? It is always 70 degrees and never rains here in Alabama.

This company is out of Drexel Hill, PA. Has a similar name to the one mentioned above.

Sure, I can, are we sure it is what he needs? And I dont take paypal (MC, V, AX)

It is inside the bigger body about 1" x 1.5" and yeah it is the silly stuff that you can only cut between every third module.
