I sure was lucky for having a lot of completed projects done just before my accident. Here is a slide show of one of them.
I did not realize that using a mouse and the key board with only one hand would be a problem but finding out it is.
This sign consists of MDO,HDU,Dibond and Digital print.
The print was designed off the shape, colored diamonds as for the shape behind the turtle, dots for the upper shape and the name (L)ittle (L)uxuries, The L's are rotated to make the other design on the print.
This sign was installed on Mackinac Island and the Indian name for the island is "The Great Turtle"

What beautiful signs. I know the clients will be very happy.
How did you fill in the space between the faces?
Woops, I bet you have a devil of a time typing. Perhaps later when you recover.
Get well soon buddy. Were rooting for you.

Joe, if you mean the inside, they are 2x4 mounts with 1.25 square tube and angle welded to them.
The bracket mounts on the wall first and has two 1" square tubes welded on that. The sign just slides on and then slides off for the winter.
If you mean the outside, it is aluminum roll stock air-nailed on and then painted.
Hope this helps.

Very nice. I'm sorry to hear of your accident, I've been kind of out of the loop lately. I'm glad you are on the road to recovery.
