Tour an impressive sign shop     |    Number 40
 
 

It's always great to visit someone else's shop-to see how their shop is set up, look around their workspace and see work they have in progress. It's especially worthwhile if it's a well-equipped, effective shop, like Peter Moir's shop, The Sign Depot in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada.

 

The other day, I bumped into a terrific online tour of Peter Moir's shop, The Sign Depot, by D.W. White on his makebright.com blog. It was great to get a behind-the-scenes look at the shop where all these neat projects come to life.

 

Peter was first featured in SignCraft back in September/October 1998. He and his staff turn out loads of creative signs and graphics: 3D, storefronts, interior graphics and more. To do that successfully, you need a shop that works for you.
