  we make these all the time, pretty easy using minitrim.
  just mitre to size and fit to the face of your sign.
  use a bit of composite, alloy or acrylic as your slider.

  I buy name plate holders from pantograph services and make the slider using 1mm PVC

  I agree with Phill on this too, i’ve used this method also. looks neater in my opinion also.
  We moved to the mini-trim after when we had to add an options to "lock" the slider and something else, which i forget now.
  thanks for the reminder on this Phill! :thumbup2:

  We’ve also used Spandex Slatz in the past. Quite tidy.
