Hey Bill, I Love your Work BTW, Magic sculpt leaves, Sculpt on an Al You Panel base bird.1" insulation foam core in between Die Bond.I cut alupanel strips and shaped for the sides.7/8" steel tube supports sandwiched between the faces.Probably used 6 lbs of epoxy on this yet it is no heavier than 3'4" signboard.I finished the edges with magic sculpt.This is one job I wish I had cut on CNC. I used a scroll saw on the pvc and cleaned up with the foredom b/4 painting.I embedded crushed glass in epoxy as I wanted a larger facet than smalt.

Very nice makeover Darcy.

I liked how you removed the scrolls from the logo, much cleaner.

Great looking sign. How about more details on fastening what appears to be PVC letters & magic sclupt to the DiBond. Did you account for expansion & contraction?

Are the steel tubes static or dynamic-somewhat telescoping, when installing?

Thought old sign was nice, but wow did you ever make it beautiful, more appealing and readable plus a much better image, outstanding.

Joe, I'll take $500 for the ladder, it has history and is sentimental. E-Bay ?
