Friday, we installed a small subdivision entrance sign, cut out on our router.

We're currently working on cutting out 118 PolyMetal letters(12" to 20" high) on the router, painting then installing them on a metal building.

Working on an aluminum panel and welded frame sign for a church.

Outsourced a nice bronze plaque to Gemini.

Just finished cutting out a small v-carved cedar sign on the router.

Scanned, vectorized, and edited a logo for a client to put on a banner.

Sold two aluminum 4x8's to a motel owner today,

And I have a the vinyl lettering cut out and ready to install on a gas truck when he brings it in. (They're kinda busy right now)

The phone has been ringing this week and I think we're going to have a busy spring!

Good for you Wayne.

This my be one of our best years. So far we're way up on sales and there seems to be more in the works.

I don't know how the sticker folks are doing but dimensional work is holding up.

January was slow as things started to get going but February has been outstanding with work already booked a month plus out from now. Plenty more jobs are on the burner waiting to start! And I believe once the Olympics are done and everybody is paying attention once again it will bust loose here.

For us, February has been better than January (or any of the six months before), although still at about 50% of "normal".

I would hate to jinx something but it is a positive sign and just maybe this WILL BE the month that we begin to turn around.

It's good to hear the phone ring and there is someone on the opposite end other than bill collectors.

We're up 10% on last Jan Feb 2009. That ultimately finished up a break even year in a terrible economy which I was satisfied with. Trying not to jinx things either but things seem to be loosening up a little. Would be very happy with a 10% growth rate per year for the next three or four years. Heres hoping
