    Hi Team, i’m looking for some round extruded aluminium post that will maybe take a finial.

    these are for Tee info’boards on a Golf Course.

    i want to use ally panels between the posts, so i need to slide the panel into a slot? or i need ‘tags’ on the outside of the post( is this making sense??)
    to fix the panels to.
    the ‘stucture’ does need to be rigid and capable of taking knocks etc … as they remove the sign to mow the grass!!

    Any help appreciated.

    p.s
    Sizes
    panel 600×500(max) shaped top

    Any other ideas… needs to be classy and ‘timeless’ 🙄

    Cheers guys

    I like the AS760 system from Ashby, but i don’t think it would be rigid enough with the grub screws to hold the sleeve. I suppose we could drill and tap through for a stainless cap screw??

    The sign board needs to be held by the supports and the supports need to be held in place by the board if that makes any sense, thereby the components will make a rigid sign that can be removed fom the ground without losing any rigidity..

    may have to be a bespoke version of the 760 idea??

    SMP have some good stuff – in this instance i don’t think the pathfinder is the one for me..
