After a six-year absence, I decided to attend the International Sign Association EXPO in Las Vegas this year. It was past time to reaffirm our valuable connections in the industry. Our good friends from Colorado were launching the all-new IBEX routing software at the show and had honoured us with an invitation to assist them. I also spent some time in the booth of our decades-long suppliers and friends at Precision Board HDU. I met with many good friends in the industry and made some new ones. It was a busy and productive three days on the enormous trade show floor. Now, I head home to help finish a shop full of projects and the almost complete Under Hill project.
