    We fitted this to an advertising trailer in a field this afternoon.

    It dawned on me yesterday when we finished producing the individual sections and lined it all up in the unit to test fit it – that it probably holds the record for the biggest sign we have made to date. It measures 20ft x 10ft made from 4 sections each measuring 10ft x 5ft

    Nice Phill.

    But wouldn’t it have been easier to apply it in your workshop?

    nice work Phil looks like the extra space in your new unit is being put to good use, is that all digital onto composite?

    The trailer was too tall to fit inside our workshop John C.
    It was a combination of digi print and cut vinyl applied to Forrex John H (not ideal I know – but all the budget for this particular job would allow)
    And George…you’re supposed to admire the sign, not stare at my knob 😕

    Hahaha I would have never noticed that, thanks for pointing it out George!
    I have to work in a field tomorrow too, a farm sign I did in 1998 needs hours of operation added.
    🙄
    Love….Jill

    Only George notices things like that Jill.

    Good job Phill,

    I trust you carried out a full risk assessment prior to fitting on uneven ground and being more than 1/2 mtr up a ladder
