  2. LED perimeter lighting

    There are a number of flexible LED strips, but you're going to have rounded corners. There are others where you can snap them every inch or so to make your turns. I forget the brand though. Look through the websites for Sloan, GE, Agilight, etc. There are a ton of them out there.
  3. Mounting acrylic laser cut letters to substrate

    Because he's afraid of sticking it in the wrong spot and not being able to re-position it. His thought process comes from applying vinyl wet so it can be re-positioned...that obviously can't be done with VHB tape.
  4. Mounting acrylic laser cut letters to substrate

    No, VHB tape isn't like vinyl. VHB = Very High Bond. There won't be any sliding of the letters. Align a corner, then slowly lay down the rest of the letter, aligning as you go. Correct...the pressure has to be applied directly over the tape (not just to the letter in general) so that it wets...
  5. Mounting acrylic laser cut letters to substrate

    I'm confused by "double sided sticky pads". I assume you mean VHB tape...? I don't like pounce patterns. They're messy and it can be hard to make out the lines. Some alternate methods: - I agree with Pat. If you can obtain the file for the letters, cutting a pattern out of vinyl or even a thin...
  6. fixing a panel to steel frame

    One of the most common ways is to VHB-tape aluminum angle to the ACM panels. The angle can be drilled or through-bolted to the sign frame. It's also not uncommon to build slip-over cabinets that simply slip over the sign frame and don't require actual fasteners (depending on the design, of course).
  7. Metal Sign

    I don't know if you'll really find a "source'. SignComp and others sell kits for directional signs, but these are an easy manufacture. They look like your run-of-the-mill directional sign fabricated from 2" square aluminum tube frame/supports and overlaid with .063" or .080" aluminum. Your...

  11. City Hall is going to LOVE you...

    Also, make sure you understand how the ordinance is written. Do they "box" the graphic as a whole or "box" individual sections when calculating square footage? That can make a huge difference.

  15. What are you doin all night?

    I hope things work out for you and hope you have a good time in Dallas. There's no shortage of restaurants here but the scenery is lacking. Enjoy the flat, featureless terrain and dingy haze as you fly in and be glad of all of the greenery around Charlotte when you fly back! When I was into...

    Thanks guys. That's kind of what got my thought process started was I was adding some photos of signs on a construction trailer and it occurred to me that I have plenty of photos of nicer signs on there that I don't need to add every single thing I do anymore. In the beginning, it was more of a...
