Its good but its not right!

Getting know where fast on this and really need your help, trying to find the correct mounting system for cone type signs I need to make some and cant source the sleeve or the straps these type of signs use, please please help me xxx
-
Try ASD Metal Services. They do a range of clamps for different sizes of posts so maybe a 150mm clamp for the lower part of the cone and a 76mm clamp for the upper part????
Worth asking them 😕 -
or maybe Blackburns 01234 684 100, may be a wild goose chase but have always found them helpful.

quote John Harding:Rich, at the prices shown above, I would just buy them in. hardly worth the effort to buy the brackets, and make the signs!

There to a spec that I need to make not standard type signs, so would like to make the sign and the attach a bracket to the rear, there must be a supplier of the mount used, just need to find them. A prize for the first person to find a supplier of just the bracket !!!!!!!!!!
Peter I may be able to buy them in from them at the size I need and apply a digital print to the face of theres???
ps thanks to Lynn today for simple signlab help Rich

what do I win?? 😀
-
Harry thats where I got the picture from, just need to see if they just supply the mounting. Will let you know on prize.
-
might as well just use heavy duty zip ties!!
what stops the sign slipping around in the wind?
-
Rich
why not use a 4” & 2” pipe wall clips from local plumbers merchantsKev

To me it looks like a couple of rubber straps that are riveted on and stretched across the cone 😕
-
Thanks for all your help on this I have been so busy and not had time to follow up. Tim I think your onto something there and sounds the best way , doing this there is nothing that can snap off as the rubber will give.
OK next question where could I now get rubber bands that are thick and wide like this??????????????? -
The big rubber band shop :lol1:
What about inner tubes 😕
-
Inner tube good idea but would need to be thicker like 3mm thick and 8mm wide and fit around 100mm and 250mm. I just want to be able to buy them in, Calling all rubber band suppliers 😮 😮 😮 😮 😮 😮
-
Didn’t Titanic have some stock…i’m sure they had a band on ship ….i’ll get me coat 😳
-
like the bands that people put on there wrists but bigger
-
Just had a thought (yes..it hurt) try a rubber stamp manufacturer.
They should be able to cure some natural rubber to the dimensions you asked for. I kmow this because I used to be employed by NatWest and used to make all their rubber stamps. The rubber is cured on a vulcaniser so rails could be used leave space for the finished article. -
Garden centres!!!! they have rubber straps for fixing trees to posts!
EDIT
-
I may have the plan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
