Now I can finally hang that 5' x 10' sign.

cool stuff. I love their gates. The brakets are a little pricy, but they look like they are good quality, and I guess they are even powder coated!

I hope they have provisions for guide wires ...I don't see any cross pieces where it bolts to the building! A sign hanging from a bracket that large might end up in the next county down here...even daily T-storms have some pretty powerful wind gusts.

I like some of the smaller stuff though. [Smile]

Dave,
Thanks for the compliment.

Dave,
Our brackets are very heavy forged pieces not twisted sheet metal. We provide free rendering service. If you send us your artwork, we will render it in 3D on our sign brackets, (lights and shading, see: renderings ). Our customers tell us this really helps sell their clients. Also we perform minor adjustments to the brackets at no or minimal cost. All in all, we think their a bargain.

Jeff,
We always add guy wire lugs to any bracket over 36". Sometimes smaller if the customer requests. We also add clips to connect the bottom edge of the sign to the wall also. Or complete metal frames around the sign.

I took the time to peruse their website... these folks are craftsmen! Lots of inspiration and ideas on these pages!

Dan, nice to meet you. have you given any thought to becoming a "letterville merchant"?

I would bet that given the obvious quality of your work, you would have several new customers on here. just a thought!

Anyone connected with Signcraft should see about a profile on this segment of the trade. Nothing makes a great sign look bad like a plain bracket.

Reply to Dan Sawatzk: Checked out your site, pretty impressive. Do you hand carve this stuff?

Reply to Dave Utter: I am considering becoming a merchant. I was wondering how effective it would be?
So many places to advertise so little money.
