Nice X!

Cranes! (insert Tim Allen grunts here)

Thanks. This all looks like I might kinda like doing this sort of thing. I like the creative use of shapes and you get to use manly tools like welders and shears and stuff and then light it all up with high voltage. Neon has always facinated me. I have bent some glass tubes before..... I...

Thanks for looking that up. I knew what a push through was. What I didn't get was how do you make an aluminum retainer to hold the face on. Is it cut out of sheet aluminum and a flange welded around it or?

I'm wondering why you are using lexan over acrylic. No judgement....just don't know.

So just how big is that bagel jamie? It looks at least 5' across.

Appreciate the post but..... umm..... huh?? What does all that mean Rick? Is there a glossary somewhere for all this lingo?

I thank you for your post but I don't know what a retainered channelized cabinet is. I don't suppose you would have a picture of one?

So this face will expand and contract a total of 3/8"? What is the coefficient of expansion for the .08 aluminum the face is mounted on?

By Mexicans?

Thanks for the diagram. Here is a pic of where this thing would go.

Ohhhhh......a wise guy eh?........ Alright I caught my error while you were posting.... So..... what the hell is "trimcap"?

And it all went Greek.... (This why I don't make these things.) Trim cap? What the hell is trim cap? :Big Laugh

Dan, I can think of quite a few different ways to make this thing. Not sure if any of them are the right way though and I don't really like re-inventing the wheel. Maybe This should be in the premium section so I can ask for some serious construction tips? The "can" part seems pretty straight...

It would be a doozy for me. Are you sayin' I should just make it m'self? If I had plans I'm quite capable of most any fabrication work but I have no experience with making "channel letters". Up here we have a Provincial inspector for this type of stuff that we pay $250 per visit for him to...

It's 59"h x 66"w but the size could be reduced a smidge if need be. I've never heard of "neon Lexan". What is it? Or are you reccomending neon to light the thing?

Send me a file....I'll give you quote.

Here is a pic of the sign shape. I altered the logo to obscure the company. It is 66" wide and mounts to a wall so it's single sided. What I would like to know is how should this be constructed. I don't want to make it but I want to know what to ask/look for when I'm trying to find a...

This is an awesome image. I like a girl who's fit.

Or...never use layers.
