BTW, the decorating decisions, colour are not mine to make. I design the basic shapes and layout and cut them on the router. That is what I get paid for so I can put some money away for a motor home. |

The guy is nuts. Serious software savvy and cnc savvy PLUS a great team of artists. Just a big kid...LOL |

How are these fastened onto the rock? They're screwed to a slab of marine ply which is TapCon'd to the stone using shims for flatness. Then Dave mixes up some matching paint (to the rock) and then uses stainless screws to attack the signage to the boards. Countersunk and filled, then spot painted. He photographs the screw locations before hiding them, in case the sign gets damaged and needs to be repaired. This might be of some interest to you...a collector and restorer of antique British sports cars wants me to make some dashboards for him. He is handing me the slabs, veneers and .dxf files. So I bought a vacuum pump, am building a control circuit for the pump and making myself a vacuum bag. I have a lot of homework to do on finishing those re; weather , cold, heat etc. Exotic wood, British sports cars, a CNC, and he brews his own ales...dayum, life can be rough. Truer words were never spoken than by a few ShopBotters who told me just to "go ahead and buy one of those damned thangs, because a year from now you will have NO idea what you're going to be doing with it, but it will be busy..." David Beatty is the client, he also does the painting. The signs and painting look good. Thank you, kind sir. |

I have seen 3D maps at the tee boxes showing lay outs of the tee box, fair way, bunkers, lakes, and greens. Just a thought. |

IIRC these maps were about 12 x 24" on average, mounted on a post just above the stats/information about the hole. |

May I ask what brand of HDU you use and who your supplier is? I did a lookup and Sign Arts lists Acme out of Hamilton but a search of Acme out of Hamilton's site turns up zip. Thanks in advance. I get mine from Canadian Signcrafters Supply in Bayfield, ON. |
