Looking for a walk through on Aluminum Signs

[Mountain Foundry]

I'm looking for info or a walk through on what I would need to make my own aluminum signs. I found someone who can provide me anodized aluminum and I can cut it to size. What sort of prep do I need to perform on the aluminum and what recommendations do folks have for printers that can perform the task. I'm going to be printing in black and white primarily to begin.

Thanks!

Are you wanting to print directly to the aluminum?

Are you in the sign or graphic design business, or are you trying to get hard earned information and knowledge from those of us who are, in order to avoid paying a local provider for that knowledge?

I would say you would need at least a 2' wide x 7' high opening for it to be a walk through!

Try introducing yourself and tell us a little about your business to get started.You should do some more research on materials and processes for aluminum signs and that will help you ask better questions. And if you give some more information on what you are going to be using these signs for you may get some better answers. Oh ya, welcome from VA.
