Here are three signs I just installed the last couple of days. The Timbercrest estates is 3' by 4' on 11/2" signfoam with an mdo backer. All gold leaf on the lettering and around the edge. Mounted by putting studs in the back of the sign,drilling holes in the brick, filling with glue, and pushing the sign in. The Harvester and Cloverlick signs are for two housing projects. Both on 11/2" signfoam with gold leaf and paint. Installed on 1" steel with lag bolts. The brick structure was done by them. They intend to fill it with flowers year round. -------------------- Maker of fine signs and other creative stuff. Located at 109 N. Cumberland ave. Harlan, Ky. 40831 606-837-0242

Very sharp! The first one is only glued on? The glue won't contract eventually and kick the sign off the brick? -------------------- "B0LT" on the chat room thing.steven.barba@yellowjackets.bhsu.edu 605-720-7669

Looks good, John! We install the same ways depending on the location, etc. It's always a plus when you don't have big lag head on the face of your sign. -------------------- Joe Endicott NEXCOM (Navy Exchange Service Command) Signing Programs Specialist Virginia Beach, VA jeendicott@msn.com "I want to be Stereotyped....I want to be Classified."
