Anyone do anything like this??

[WYLDGFI]

Have a GOOD client in need of something like this....anyone?

 

[Circleville Signs]

Looks like a pretty easy fabrication. What material is it made of?

 

[SignManiac]

Must be something anchoring it, looks like it could topple if its top heavy with news papers.
I suspect it's weighted at the bottom. Can't tell from photo but is it metal?

 

[WYLDGFI]

Client said it was coroplast.....all I know. trying to get more info.

So do you need a die line to use or do you not have an iCut?

 

[ddarlak]

Must be something anchoring it

looks to be the same size as two concrete blocks, stacked on each other....

I think you are right about that. I know damn well that a coroplast structure like that would not stand upright with 20-30 lbs. of news papers on top.

If made right, out of coroplast, that would stand up fine.

I dont have an I cut....Typestries was going to cut for me and he doesnt have the CAD file or die line to do anything like that.

I think coro would be strong enough; we design and cut a lot of different things from coro, I will attach a few. Heck a guy made a plane from coro on this site!

We design and manufacture point of purchase displays similar to that all the time...feel free to send me any details if you'd like a quote.

 

[WYLDGFI]

I appreciate that forge...client called up and needed 2 of these dang things for an upcoming event. Not even sure when it is....want to see if I can get a die line for one if at all. Rick at Typestries would cut it for me...

Funny, it is the guy that made the plane that is telling us it won't work.....

Yeah, you're right -- someone did build a plane out of coroplast...


Oh, wait a minute... it was this guy:

<edit> oh, too late, I see....

[BadAss]

We do stuff for news papers all across the country, ones like those we have fabed at a plastics shop and we do the graphics....M*

Hey Wyld Bill, I have an assortment of templates to fabricate foldable displays (nothing exactly like that one in your picture) but cubes, 'take one's', enter to win boxes with attached podium, I will need to dig through old files on my old cnc computer but will make myself a note to do some 'searching' and then they can be modified to make your own.

Alternatively, if you have a contact that is in the packaging industry (fabricating corrugated boxes, etc.) there is a older machine but still in use called the 'bobst' that has templates that are commonplace in that industry for many of those 'foldable' 3 dimensional items (similar like clipart collections in our industry).

Try http://www.uline.com/
They have all kinds of boxes and specialty stuff, paper and coro.

We can do this for you in corrugated cardboard, as the photo appears to be. This is fairly standard corrugated design. How tall, how large is the tray, what size is header card. Are you looking for it cut out or just a die line. If your customer wants it printed, you should print it before cutting. We can do the entire job or just send you a cad....

Let me know...
Rick
