Default scale trail signs

im building a series of scaler trails
around my 2 1/2 acres.
and i love the signs used at msd comp.
thanks gman!

what i used..
2 sheets of styrene .060
1/2inx1/2inx36in oak hardwood square
sticks from home depot,stained dark.
yellow sticker vinyl(got from buddy)

cut the wood into 1ft sections.
stained.

laid out the signs 3x3 on styrene.

this is what it will yield



carefully laid cut signs onto yellow vinyl.

painted backs of signs w brown primer


and...


HAPPY TRAILS!

the signs look good

i put a 60 degree cut on the ends of sticks to get them in the ground easier. paint the backs silver to look like the alum. on real signs.

later

Those are some great little details. I like them.

Think I'm gonna build some for my indoor parcour if copying the idea is allowed.
