Very nice!.. I have a couple of questions though, how did you attach the dibond panels to the 4x4? and what material did you use for the edge capping?

I am thinking that the screws are behind the address panels, etc but I'm unsure.. I have been wanting to do something similar for awhile after seeing it a few times as most others in my area wouldn't bother to take the time to do it.

You are correct. The Dibond is fastened to the 4"x4" post on the top behind the address panel, and if you look down at the bottom, you will see a bullet below the scroll. A lag bolt there with a white plastic cap covering it. The side covers are 3/4" PVC.

I enjoy finding ways to hide the fasteners. It gets easy after a while. These types of signs are easy to sell and get top dollar for if you learn to design something out of the ordinary. And design signs that your competitors can't easily reproduce. Raise the bar and make the others chase you!

Nice.. I have to quote a job tomorrow and depending on what they are looking for I think I might try this technique out.
