Hey I have a couple ideas for signs for the games but i was wondering where most people printed them... I checked out copyworks and there it was like $80 or something so theres gotta be a cheaper option that I just dont know about.

When I was at ISU, at least in engineering you had excessive amounts of printer credits, applied to your bill whether you used them or not...so you could use the big plotters in the engineering computer labs for "free" since you've already paid the fees.
Then go to Hobby Lobby and get some thick board backing for a few bucks, then glue or spray adhesive...done! 10 bucks most!
Any thoughts?
Anyone compared Alpha Copies to Copyworks? (Right by Campus Bookstore)

This is what i did. Used the plotter for 30 print credits, went to hobby lobby and bought foam board for 5.99 and spray adhesive for like 4.99 and boom, done.
Can people not in the engineering school use that plotter? Im a business major and we dont have anything like that...
I think you have to be in engineering to use those, but there is some kind of print shop in the design building that i believe is open to anyone. I have never been there so i am not exactly sure.
Print/computer labs at design college on 4th floor. Was a $1 per inch on 36 in wide printer with a couple different paper options in 2009.
Many departments, especially science-related disciplines, have plotters of some sort, as presenting posters at conferences is quite common for researchers. Just get in with the person in charge!
I've made some personal posters and prints by buying the guy who runs our plotter a six pack.

Who needs a "sign" when you can wave a replica brick to let the opponent know what you think of his free throws? Works best if seated directly behind basket, roughly 15 rows up. Finished product should be 27" x 48" and cost less than $20.
Materials:
1 9'x4' Insulated Sheet $13
1 can "brick red" spray paint $5
1 roll of duct tape
1 Cutting tool like Dremmel/steak knife, etc.
My materials list is based on my experience, and the recommendation to cut the 9'x4' sheet into 4 equal sheets that are 27"x48" and taping them together for stability, creating a 2" thick brick rather than 1/2".

It's based off of this picture. He's a crazy guy from a show called Ancient Aliens whose explanation for every little unknown thing is aliens.
