ok, here it is in a nutshell.
History - All military units have signage outside of their respective elements, typically steel, some cases wood. In the case of my unit we have none do to the nature of our work, that being said, the CO wants to do something about it.
sign - square tubing, 2.5 x 4 box with legs extending down 4 ft or so. concreted in, we dont need any other units trying to steal it. lol. floated in the center of the rectangle is a sheet, i would figure cross braces of some flat stock centered then drilled would allow the sign to be floated and centered. standard lettering for the unit, but to add a bit of BLING the BN crest is to be cut out of stainless, polished then painted with the appropriate artwork. that would definatly sealed with something. float the crest out approx 3/4 inch from the sign face. all the metal would be powdercoated and any fasteners used would be security type.
what say you mud?
anyone in the SF bay area willing to help with somethin like this? I will be paying materials out of pocket, but everything else is supertight. i can give you an award for your help and possibly some other items for recognition.
comments, suggestions, rants etc.
thanks
Mike
