May 8, 201214 yr #614 If you want hi gloss don't use timber. it will absorb the paint and well there is no point ruining a good stick! Try if you can (and don't want to actually carry anything on it) maybe per specs or some kind of black plastic. Then get your logo printed into a sticker and stick it to the plastic. Might give you a transparent look and bugger all weight...If not then 19mm form ply comes in a relatively glossy black and I think it can be painted pretty easily.
May 8, 201214 yr #615 just get a sign company to make up something that they can stick down over top, as mentioned above perspex for eg, or sheet of steel/metal etc. Edited May 8, 201214 yr by Ford Freak
May 8, 201214 yr #616 just use marine ply or form ply. comes black, is weather proof and would paint well
May 8, 201214 yr #617 Will be a lot of weight difference between the sign writing and the timber..win!
May 8, 201214 yr #618 Author Acrylic/perspex doesnt sit flat in heat, also can become brittle in time. I can do all of that at sign company I contract for, considered it and asked the questions. Jd and now a few others have suggested marine ply, so that's the way Im going. It comes in 2400x1200 sheets so I will have to join 2 together. However when its in the cnc router I will run little v grooves down it every 90mm to give the effect of decking butted together. This will also disguise the join. Win!
May 8, 201214 yr #619 Smart idea! Should be called cleverdick lol. Everything going to be flush with top of outside frame yeh?
May 9, 201214 yr #620 Author Flush, sunk in 3mm to start of radius on rhs frame or proud a few mm with chamfer all round ?
