    Thats fun, how easy is it to make different styles or make leeters in cast resin, I built powerboats in the 70’s πŸ™‚

    I am thinking about the dimensional signage I make now with HDU foam, and the cost of that, and add ons to my sandblasted signage.

    Be interested to hear more,

    NOISEY, NO NOT IF THE RADIO IS UP HIGH ENOUGH!

    THESE WERE CAST FOR ME BY ‘GETSET DESIGN’, A NEW COMPANY AT SIGNUK LAST YEAR………JUST SEND THEM YOUR OUTLINE DRAWING IN .EPS OR .AI SIZED, WITH PRIFILE STYLE & HEIGHT, FINAL COLOUR & FINISH PLUS FITTING LOCATION & THEY’LL BE WILL YOU IN ABOUT A WEEK.

    THESE ARE 3/4″ HIGH, 10″ TALL..’SIGNS’ X2 SETS, FOR FLAT SURFACE FIXING & THEY COST ME Β£130.00 =Β£9P/P+VAT.

    i WAS HAPPY.

    THE NOISE HAS’NT BEEN A PROBLEM, THEY HAVE BEEN ON THE VAN NOW FOR 9 MONTHS WITH NO VANDALISM.

    i missed this one sammy. great work mate.
    i saw a van owned by pearce signs with a moulded letter P on their van. it was part of their logo. looked ok, but i prefer this version.

    i was always under the impression they stopped using it because it maybe get pinched or broke.

    great stuff none the less mate. thanks for sharing πŸ˜‰
