Where bouts in NoDak are you? I lived in Grand Forks for about 14 years.

Here is something to look at from another board I post on. I think it says it all.

Aaron, I call myself a graduate of the school of 'No Parking Signs'. So the name of the game is mileage. No other way to get around it. You are going to have to stroke, stroke, stroke till that brush has a mind of it's own. One thing I might suggest is to hold the brush very loosely. A common mistak...

A while back Laminators Inc. had a problem with their Luster Board (alum/ply) material. They started to use a softwood core and I experienced a del-lamination of the aluminum and ply. They have since gone back to the harwood core. I'm guessing this solved the problem. I got off easy on my go round. ...

The one thing that Jes is interested in is the ability to cut vinyl which I don't think will happen with Corel or Illustrator. I've used Signlab since the beginning of time. You don't have to buy say the Print/Cut version $$. They do have a pared down version that would be adequate. I'm sure Flexi h...

Here's another thought Bob. If you put down Gerber (enamel receptive)
220 series clear you can paint away.

Mark

Looks like I have Chester's design notebook from '82 if someone wants to
buy it shoot me a PM.

The ramifications of 3d printer on the horizon are enormous. The medical industry as I understand are printing titanium hips right in the hospital. The consumer version that is readily available can print you a plastic part. The future for the number of substances 3d printers will print will sure ch...

Here is a movie for sign painters. Maybe some of you know a few
in this movie.

What Tyler is saying is correct. Something about these modern auto glass surfaces. They repel like Rain-X. If you were looking for a handpainted look on an oval you could consider Gerber 220 series (enamel receptive) clear. You can paint it and then do your hand paint letter work. I would dry apply ...

A real success story Bill. Show us some pics of what you did. Signpainters rule!

Mark

Mike is right about the 1-Shot not being your best backup choice. It was back in the day. My question is how you rubbed off the excess. Did you get everything really wet and then rub? My failures have been when I got the background too wet and then rubbed off with cake BonAmi. Really kinda dry pasty...

Guess it was confirmed the tornado was an EF-5. Only 1% of tornadoes are
an EF-4, 5. Did you Mom's house get any damage Mike?

Mark

Guess it was true about the strongest winds ever in '99 outside Moore. More to the story but it happened. --------------------- Doppler radar measures 318 mph wind in tornado By Jack Williams, USATODAY.com AP Moore City, Okla., after the May 3, 1999 tornado. Scientists measured the fastest wind spee...

Glad to hear your mother is o.k. They lowered the death count to 24 just
heard on NPR. This was grand on the tornado scale. Heard outside Moore
the the highest winds in the world ever recorded of 300 mph happened
back in '99. Is that true?

Mark

Our prayers go out for your Mother. Reports are saying this could be an F-5
tornado. Please keep us posted.

Mark

Guess this one is for Mike Jackson. Wasn't this your old stomping grounds?
Mile wide tornado. Oklahoma is getting slapped pretty hard.

Here is a pic. Didn't get the last one to go through for those that don't get
Signs of the Times.

Congratulation to yourself, Joe Marshall and Bill Hueg on your 1st. Place
Signs of the Times/ Murals, Exhibit Graphics. Well Deserved!

Mark

Been an amazing adventure. I'm sure that pushed you in some directions you
never thought possible. Any future possibilities from this project?
Could you see yourself doing something like this again?

Mark

If you get Signs of the Times here is Dave Smith's story in the newest copy.
Probably won't be able to read much of it here but just so you know to look.

Mark

I've heard some good things about Modern Masters. Haven't tried it but
maybe someone else can comment. It's acrylic. They have a number of flavors.

Ronans AquaCote is a great product that is more of the one stroke variety.
They have them in the graphic colors as 1-Shot. You can get Ronan from
Dickblick.com

Mark

This has been really enjoyable watching your project unfold Jay. You've really elevated your level of play with this project on your lap. You should be real proud of your efforts. I think we can say you are no longer a greenhorn painter. Don't know how you can top this project. Hope to see some of y...

Can't say tha I really get that logo they came up with. Just doesn't do that
much for me.
For those that are counting USA has 37 medals to China's 34.


Mark

I wonder if copper leaf will tarnish with time Dan. Job well done!


Mark

Now that's what I'm talking about! That album cover looks even more
vivid than your original art. Vinyl is a happenin' thing again I hear. CD cases are
so whimpy. Very interesting to see this show up in vinyl.
You did real good on this project Dave.

Mark

....anybody want to buy my 8 track tapes?

They used the word informative at the end. Did I miss something?

Mark

Just saw you album cover on the Ellen show Dave. Maybe 5 seconds but there was.

Maybe David Letterman will have more exposure.
