Letterville is delighted to welcome 2 new Merchants to Letterville. You'll find them with our other fine Merchants on Main Street.
Our first new Merchant is from Japan! Join us in welcoming Kazuhiro Kudo, and his 3 year old company, Paint Factory Inc.. Drop by their website at http://www.paint-factory.jp/ You'll see they carry everything a sign shop needs.
My Japanese is awful, so it's handy to see that all the links are in English, as well as Japanese. Look deeper and you'll see the beginnings of a Letterhead Movement. Are you ready for a meet in Japan?
There's a new warrior in our tongue in cheek "Router Wars." Letterville welcomes Ez-Router to Town!
EZ-Router has been in business since early 2001 and is growing by leaps and bounds.
It began with the company's founder, Daniel Berry, and a problem of finding someone to cut parts, and not damage the substrate. After turning many stones he decided just to build his own machine, since he had been building custom machinery for almost 20 years. So he did just that. Unrenowned to him and many machines later ez-router was born.
ez-router has since added more knowledge by putting more minds to work on these routers so we may offer you our customer a well built, streamline machine that is affordable and dependable.

Welcome, Kazuhiro and Jacob!
Hey, Jacob your EZ-Router looks pretty beefy, not bad prices either. I believe that'd it would definitely be worth consideration...
In fact, if you send me one with a 5'x12' table, I'll do a really nice rosy review for you here!
Again, welcome...

Welcome to Letterville and thanks for your support. I saw Paint Factory mentioned in an article in Signs of the Times. Jacob, I didn't have a chance to go thru the whole site, but what software is needed to run?
Posted by Deri Russell (Member # 119) on March 29, 2007 02:46 PM:
Deri runs in- Jon & Bruce, knocking them out (temporarily)- and takes their place in line.
Hand outstretched to shake-Pleased to meet you Jacob!
And welcome to Kazuhiro too! That's great there are "Letterheads" in Japan!

Welcome, to both companies!

"Are you ready for a meet in Japan?" Yeah, big time, if I could afford to go. I lived there as a kid (AF brat), still have vivid memories. I've long wondered how much demand there would be for western style signage over there.
Where's the little bowing emoticon when you need it?
Welcome to Letterville.
