i like that Russ, looks very smart mate. 😉
does it illuminate?
is this from Vista? if not, who’s system is it?
sorry for the questions :lol1:

constructive crit: i like the overall look and design. the only bit (and it is just my self preference) is the logos running up the left… ide maybe have left them off as it changes direction with the ones passing through the logo. having said that, ide have use one or other… if the ones running up left, then not the ones in logo… oh ill shut up mate. I’m sure you know what i am babbling about. :lol1:

thanks for taking the time to post your work Russ, much appreciated mate 😉

Thanks for the comments guys I will put you in the picture as best as I can.
The system is Vista base & top plate Plus internal struts, the sheets are 2mm ally mill finish and hand cut to size. monolith 10ft x 4ft. Prints and assembly 1 day, cutting sheets and applying of prints and laminate 1 day, at this point a 4ft printer might have saved about half a day, to site and fitting including the letters 1 day, So 3 days but next time prehaps 2 days 2 people plus printing. There is of course all the hidden time of site visits, templates and meetings with the customer to add, the design was supplied. There is going to be soft wash of external up-lighting.

Well done. Now I know why we have not seen you around much mate.

Yes Andy, I have to say to my shame that over 50% of the credit has to be handed to Anita in every aspect of making and installing this sign, so the topic heading should read OUR FIRST MONOLITH it was one of those jobs that take over your mind even when we had finished working for the day. Now we just what to get our hands on another one.

The Ezy-taper was a great help and the designer took into account that we only have a 30" printer. The artwork came in files so we could print the items individually and the long vertical panels carry a merging very light blue to almost white area in the middle, this allowed us to get an overlap with out any stepping. Fully assembled it was not light and after all that work we only felt at ease once it was bolted into place.
