My name’s Andrew and im……
Hia every1. Just come to say hello. Just posted my mugshot slightly oversized so appologies to anybody that i frightened 😮
Im only a little baby compared to all you oldies 😛 Im 19, from Cardiff and started out on my own about 6months ago. My dad got me into it when i was 11 beleive it or not as he had an advertising business and to keep costs low, ordered cut vinyl and let me weed it and help him apply it to vehicles. Since that ive worked with him in a furniture shop in the same way except with our own plotter (an old Houston thing, think its nearly 15yrs old 🙄 ). So ive slowly taken the machine on to be my own and to get away from making cheezy furniture signs 👿
So thats basically me, only dealing with vinyl at the moment but its getting me there 🙂
Cheers

Hi Andrew
Nothing Wrong with starting young mateSo long as you can stick them letters on straight after a night down liquid
or the walk about bar 😆At least you have some help at your finger tips if you need it which is more than most of us had when we started.
Youve done the hardest part now get stuck in and enjoy
Regards…………FB Only over the hill or is that completly over the hill 😆 😆

hello again andrew 😉
well mate, like the others have said. age doesnt mean a thing.. “so we keep telling mike anyway! 😉 ahem…”
as long as that houstin keeps cutting it will continue to make you cash..
fancy machines and software come second.. your only overhead ide guess just now is the vinyl you cut! thats a good thing..
having been around signs, regardless to the type of signs, will have given you a feel for the work. your obviuosly interested and starting so young is good too.. so dont knock it. 😉feel free to get cracking with the questions. thats what the sites here for.. once you have done a bit of posting ill ad you to the file swapping forum.
if i havent and you have made a fair amount dont be shy and message me to remind me.
you cant miss me… im the guy that cant spell 😉 😆oh yeh… how did you find the site mate?

Yea its a sign man thing and were not alone when you going to put a ploody spel chqer on this thing

😆 😆 😆 your right there bob 😉
as for the spell checker. well the quick answer is yes! one can be added.
at the moment rob is waiting for me to give the nodd for the whole site switching to the new server. the site has actualy been switched and runs perfect.. but the domain name is still pointing to this one.. hoping to change that over, this week. he has also been working on a couple of new mods for the site. again it is “i” that is holding things up here.. sorry folk 🙁
once rob is done and “he” is happy with how its all running ill ask him about the spell checker. ill let you all know the outcome soon as i can… 😉 😀

Nice to feel welcome 🙂 im sure i’ll have no end of questions to ask, as every job seems to bring with it a load of confusions 🙄
(Robert: Got the site from a Yahoo! search on “gold squeegies”)
Cheers every1
