Great job!
Questions...
On the first pic:
Are the letters negatively cut? It's hard to tell.
What do you have behind the letters and the leaf that is white?
How are the arrows white?
I'd like to see the back side of the sign if you ever get a chance. Wondering how it's mounted into the ground.

Second pic: How are the logo and letters mounted to the sign?

Fifth pic: How is the sign mounted to the rock?

Its all magic!!! On the First pic I cut a panel to fit the back, and had it powder coated, then attached it to the back so that the letters would show. I am now in process of creating some art to go onto the back of it. We poured a concrete pad to attach concrete anchors to it.

The arrows are also cut from 10 Gauge and have bolts welded to them.

The Letters on the Second pic.... I cut them out upside down, and etched circles on the back so I could weld on studs. I had the matched holes laid out onto the face.

The fifth pic, I welded 4" 3/8 bolts with 1/2 inch pipe spacers, then drilled holes into the rock and mortered the bolts into place.

This was a very unique fun project to do. I am located in South Dakota, and my customer is in PA!
