Building a large v shaped sign frame
Looking for some advice from anyone that has built a v shaped frame before.
Was contacted today by the local council that are looking for 4.5m by 3m temporary sign (panel size) on a v shape frame (so it could be seen from both angles). Guessing posts would be around 1m in the ground and the sign would start from 1m ground level.
It wouldnt seem like much of a challenge if it was a smaller size but ive never built one and at this size small inaccuracies become big problems.
Frame needs to be from treated timber.
So im thinking put your first front post in, then back two, build a frame connecting them with vertical support in the middle and then support the posts with braces into the ground?Am i miles out?
My biggest concern would be how you make sure the post line up so the frame and panels are level, and also to make it more interesting its on a bank.
Any advice or experience would be hugely welcome!
