how do you fabricate the corners of dibond tray signs?

[Richard Urquhart]

all the ones i have done corners finish real fine they butt together and just add some 2 part adhesive on reverse side of corner
i cut through sheet at corners with an air saw with a real fine tooth blade once cut and if you do it stright they meet real nice and you cant see joint if you wanna be real fussy you can run a line of paint into joint

i think i have some pics some where i will have a look and post them

[Gary Davis]

thanks rich, re your other post – would appreciate the close up photos if you do get a chance!

If i saw someone do it would prob make sense straight away but the small amount ive tryed to do havent been up to standard, although maybe im just being fussy!

How did you get the orange finish on that sign?

Edit: forgot to ask do you run a bead of adhesive along the routered seam on the inside? also i mentioned to Dewi about the use of V grooved router bits from other replies also, i gathered a flat ended bit does the job, which do you use?

[Richard Urquhart]

board comes in lots of colours
i don’t run any thing in joints other than corners
i use a round bit to cut channel

Hi Guys ,

We dont stock Dibond but if no-one gets back to you from Alcan let me know and i will chase him up, they have 2 sales managers in the UK it must be one of them that posted it, ill get them to send a CD to Robert and he can copy and post them on to you.

Cheers

[L J.]

That sounds like a good idea Cammy, thanks.
