dimensional signage

I'm just starting working with HDU to produce a few signs, I made this sign for a customer which is my first real dimensional sign. Size is 84"x32" with MDO and combination of 1" 15 lb HDU and 2" 18 lb HDU, I don't have the remote idea how much to charge the customer, just to clarify I have a...

We're making a layered dimensional sign out of 3/4" thick 15LB sign foam. We've routed each individual piece (letters/shapes) with the intention of hand-sanding and painting them, then glueing them to a painted sign foam backer panel. Since this is an outdoor application, I'm concerned with what...
