We recently had a great opportunity to work with an artist client of ours. His piece incorporated a five foot long three dimensional dolphin. Of course we immediately said yes to the project and jumped right in. We started by sourcing a 3D Model of the “perfect dolphin” for the job – the client reviewed all the options and once he settled on the final shape we began our work. In the 3D model we removed the fins which will be cut separately and attached later.
Every day that goes by Dan seems to be making great progress on his storefront. Our temporary window graphics are holding up and today we got the light box sign installed. Now that the cold weather is setting in we need to complete the awning then focus on the graphics inside. This will be an awesome project and we will surely be paid in free Callahan’s hot dogs for life (wink, wink). Rad and Mark were busy cutting the graphics and applying them to the sign face
Technology is truly awesome! We were recently contacted by a retail store that had their sign damaged beyond repair in a storm. The client had to have the same sign recreated – this was a hand carved Ice cream cone and logo. She decided to ship me the parts to inspect so I could recreate it. The package arrived and yes it was beyond repair and covered in dirt and… mold. As I was putting the parts together to get measurements Rad, our Production Manager, walked by and said “Just 3D Scan It”. I hadn’t thought of it but that sounded like a fun way to reproduce the sign. So I put together the broken sign on the floor and ran our hand held Cubify Sense 3D scanner over the face of the old sign and it appeared on the screen in 3D model form.
We’re back at Fizzy Lifting Soda Pop Candy Shop for some more fun work. This time Adam has asked us to design and wrap the photo booth. Here is the finished product!
We just had the pleasure of working with Tim Luby at the Catskill Mountain Storehouse for their new retail location. They wanted a simple sign that had a rustic “trail” feel. So we set out to get it done. We cut it out of 18lb Precision Board HDU on our MultiCam 3000 CNC. We’ve cut two panels that we’ll glue together
All done and ready to install. What a fun sign to make – We hope this draws in people from far and wide to stop into this great shop. John is on the street! After shoring up the existing sign bracket and doing some spot painting on the new steel he’s ready to hang the sign. All done! Good Luck Adam and the gang – We wish you the best with the new store! Oh and can you stock Reggie Bars?
We are getting close. Brian’s been welding, building and painting away. Now that he has all the letters done he’s moved on to the sign faces. these will be a bright red and will really stand out at this little corner shop
We’re ready for paint. Its time for Brian to work his magic. He’ll start with the letters then set them aside once complete to work on the sign panels. Once the letters are primed he lays down the PMS matched color. He’s using a Matthews Paint System
A friend recently had a milestone birthday. I considered some gag gifts but in the end decided to go with something a little more my speed. I decided to make Thor’s Hammer, Thor being one of his favorite super heroes. I had a very small window of time to do it so I had to do most of it on the fly. I found a 3D Model of the Hammer itself online. This got me going. I knew I’d have to build a case for it but I had to have the hammer in my hand to do it.
