Why are the tiles going to crack? A decent diamond hole saw would work fine and isn't going to crack the tile. I agree with the other comments though....better to cover everything up if you can. But regardless, drilling in tile isn't that difficult, you just need patience and the proper tools.

Then there are a slew of hand and power tools that make installing a ton easier (laser level, laser distance measurer, kinesiology scissors (great...

To be fair, you asked for suggestions. People offered them and you poo-pooed most of them, which is your prerogative. Just weird to ask for suggestions, shoot all of them down, not give a reason why or any information to offer alternative suggestions. So it sounds like you just want...

Weird thread.

I'm not one to try to stir stuff up, so don't take this that way....but I'm genuinely confused. You asked for suggestions but seem to already have your mind made up to do it with multiple banners. You've been doing signs for 30 years, but ask for suggestions for a pretty straightforward...

Pics attached.
