Looking for a good solution to this, outside of using some type of double stick tape.

Thanks in Advance

How big? Inside or out? I've always found driving 10 penny nails through 'em holds pretty well..

interior = brads with the heads clipped off + silicone
exterior = full stud mount (3/16" threaded studs)

If your client is opposed to using a mechanical fastener, Liquid Nails is a solution. We have used LN on exterior PVC with great success, until you have to remove them that is. If they are cool with putting holes in the wall, jhilldesigns hit the nail on the head so to speak.

Sorry <def feel like rookie.. "Brads" not familiar with terminology

Sorry bout that. Interior 3/4 to 1/2 thick

For interior I use pop rivets instead of brads, because it's easier.

When I set the file up for cutting, I set the letters mirrored so the cut with the backs facing up. In the file, I pick where I want my "studs" to be, then use the router to drill 1/8" holes in those spots. Rivets with an 1/8" buck-tail fit right in the pre-drilled holes, a little silicone pretty much makes them permanent. Then, I can then "un-mirror" the file and plot a pattern, with the stud holes already marked! Like brads, you then drill tiny holes in the wall (1/16" iirc) for mounting.
