ImDownWithDisney 342 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 I started making a sign today. The sign will be 2 layers so the solid back piece can be painted a lighter color to make the darker brown front pop. Also made a custom pole to hang it on. I just have to finish welding it up and get to painting. Avatab.... Steve, bhall, dieseldave and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Travisma 1,317 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 It looks great! You should make two, put opaque plastic behind them with lights between and make them shine! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PGHFiend 140 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Very nice. Is that Plasma cut or water jet? I could never get the TorchMate and Hypertherm 65 I use to be that precise on Mickey's tail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You need to do it over with a Chinese Theater.. (No Not A Sorcerers Hat).. Or just to be safe you may want to use a Millennium Falcon. LOL.... Looks great.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PGHFiend 140 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Turned out great. Will you rivet or use some stainless screws to hold together? On stuff like that I use the hammered rustoleum for a little extra detail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think that I will use some stainless hardware with .5" spacers between the pieces that will be painted to blend in a little better. You can't tell much in the pic, but the front piece has some sort of texture. I am not sure what my wife used on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Wow, that looks great Blake! I like the 2 layered look...it really does make the primary layer pop. I might have you make another sign for Christy at some point if you ever have time, and use that method. The first one you made never did get hung outside by the road....she liked it so much it's inside the house! FortWildernessLoopy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
