  1. Just sold a sign....Now how do I make it?

    It is a very nice design... since every sign like this has a code, is it designed to the municipal code for this area? Are you installing? If so, does that require a permit and contractors license - well in your case, local registration? Overlook this and you are buying the sign... When I...

    Yikes, that sign is jacked... So first thing - Can you legally contract this sign fabrication and install? The next question - should you? Is this really a pylon sign or a one legged billboard sign? Illuminated? To determine a single post system, you need to know: How tall is the sign? What...

  16. Corel or Adobe?

    It's because you didn't take the time to learn Illustrator, if you did you would see it has a Illustrator layout mode built in, so it looks more like illustrator (because it is Illustrator). It's a massive program with a simple interface. Under every menu are sub menus, every setting has sub...

  19. How would you attach this HDU sign to a Steel Bracket?

    Sad to say, Signfoam's only solution for this type of install is bolting through the face... You can add a decorative element to the attachment. Hide the attachment , plug, then paint over If you can't drill a hole through the face and hide the mount, you might get creative by using their...
