Letters were cut by hand with a jigsaw from ¾-in. HDU board, then beveled with chisels and finished with 23k gold leaf and mounted on the two 30-by-32-in. sandblasted panels of 1½-in. HDU board, which was finished with lettering enamel. “The two HDU faces are sandwiched over a custom steel bracket,” says Curt Stenz, Curt Stenz Graphics, Marathon, Wisconsin. “I didn’t have ample vertical height on the storefront to use a traditional hanging sign, and this mounting worked out quite well. The bracket is mounted to the wall with Tapcon masonry screws.”
