NEWEST BOARD DISCUSSIONS

ISA 2011 - Viva Las Vegas! Official Roll Call Thread

Alright, so who's going? Who's not? I'm about to book Kgirl and my ticket soon here on Southwest (flying this time), the hell with a 6 hour road trip! Traveling with a large group of people probably, so we all might stay at Excalibur since it;s right next to the convention and we can just walk there. Most likely we'll just meet at Dick's Last Resort again (Located in Excalibur), in the patio if it's a nice day. I'll have some goodies for people to wear so our party is easily identifiable unlike last time......

ACTION SERVICE GROUP ASTON PA, PROBLEMS? - ANYONE HAVE PROBLEMS GETTING PAID?

We didn't end up on good terms and no, we, did not get paid for the last job we did for them ( service work ) because we would not bend with their pricing and we just wrote it off as a bad debt and also i did become a little short with them and told them to stick it where the sun don't shine. never heard from them again.....

TO CHEAP TO PAY FOR A SERVICE CALL.......

The Hotel owner also personally cleans your toilet, washes your towels, and does the plumbing. I would laugh if once he got in the ladder fell. At least he tied the scaffolding off to the flag pole!............

CHANNEL LETTER FAB QUESTION

I make all my letters by hand (channel baby and various sized rigid conduit) and I actually like the 040 better on small letters and serifs. It holds the bend a little better and doesn't kink as easy. 3.5" Coil 040 is the best way to go.........

ANYONE HAD PROBLEMS WITH DIRECT SIGN WHOLESALE IN DENVER?

We recently ordered reverse channel letters from Direct Sign Wholesale in Denver, CO. The product was terrible for a long list of reasons and they refuse to do anything about it. (even after admitting that they screwed up) Has anyone had experience dealing with them?......
