Can someone tell me what twenty-six 3½" x .250" acrylic letters with serifs and horizontally-brushed aluminum laminate would retail for?
Feel free to PM me if you would prefer.
Thanks!
Might be tough to warranty, but the silver lining is it would bring some repeat business. Like I said, try SteelArt. If you call, ask for Matt and tell him I referred you. He's a good dude.
Cool system!
Also, make sure you have only the bare minimum of blade extending past the material you're cutting - that will help prevent binding and burn (especially on wood - thinner material isn't such a big deal).
You should be fine just venting it. Illuminated signs are hung directly against/next to exterior windows all of the time and don't have an issue with condensation forming. Put a couple of vents in it and let it breathe and see if it fixes the problem.

If the customer is ok with seeing a couple of fasteners, I would put a drywall anchor at the corner of each sheet (I'm assuming you're using two sheets), one inch in or so from the edges. I like the green ones from Home Depot. You just hammer them in, no drilling. Each one will support 50lbs. of...
One of your keys to success will be to peel the black vinyl back on top of itself as flat as you can get. In other words, don't pull toward you or out at all. Pulling straight down will minimize the outward pull on the gold vinyl.
I would use .125" aluminum and run VHB tape at the very edges of the 4"x4" - from the top of the sign to the bottom. Then a few dollops of silicone between those strips of tape - like every 6" or so. One bolt at the top, one at the bottom, washers behind the panel to match the thickness of the...
