  • Fabricating a Halo Illuminated Sign, advice please?

    Posted by Peter Normington on 7 April 2010 at 07:14

    I need to know if its possible to produce a halo effect on this logo.

    the panel size is only 18" tall so the text and chickens eye would be quite small.

    it is to match the one on their factory, but obviously is not such an issue at a much larger size. http://www.oblanca.es

    the sign needs to be supplied ready to fit to a flat panel.
    I was thinking of a back lit tray with cut out and flat cut letters.
    Thoughts and sugestions welcome.

    Peter

    Hi Peter,

    I would say yes, just follow Andy Gormans tutorial, it’s like the one i did for bad barnet in effect.

    if it;s very small then maybe you’d need to use thinner panel, say 2-3mm instead of 5mm?

    Thanks Hugh, I thought about Andy’s method but the letters need to be stand off’s. not sure if that would work?
