Russ, always appreciate your interest and all the info and suggestions you have provided over the months.
I made the letters from styrene strip. First, I took a piece of .010 sheet plastic as a base and drew the letters on that. Then used .040 x .125 strip pieces to form the letters. Then after the glue dried, I cut the .010 sheet around the letters. Did the same thing with the logo. Here's a pic of the installed sign:
The ladder and cage is a commercial piece, it is rather crude and I really should build one out of brass wire, but just didn't have it in me today.
