TG 16 Edge Lit Signs for sale/trade

[Xray]

Won't go into many details here, there is a multi page thread on my design of these here
https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=12857.0

These are made out of 8x6" 1/2 thick clear acrylic [plexiglass], and are just kick ass.
A couple of things here:
* There is 1" of clear space on the bottom to accommodate a holder
* Pics below illustrate the edge lit affect with a laser beaming on the edge. The lighting/mounting solution will be up to you. These are commonly placed in a base with a slot that accommodates LED strips, with colors of your choices. Once again, this will be up to you to design yourself, or buy. There are other lighting/display ideas in the multi page thread listed above.
* I am currently doing 2 styles of the TG logo, outlined and filled. Other designs are possible, pm me with ideas.
* If you want one, please pm me with what you want, no need to post here ,,, But feel free to post back with "testimonials" once you receive.
* These are made on a CNC machine, but there is quite a bit of labor getting them ready to ship. They have to be cleaned and blown off, edges sanded then flame polished, then polished with glass cleaner. The 1/2 acrylic doesn't come cheap, so I am pricing these as cheap as I possibly can.
* Am willing to work in trades on TG hucards I don't have, my list is here

Outline TG design is $30
Filled in TG design is $35, quite a bit of extra cutting time to fill the logo.
PCE logo $35, filled only. Outline doesn't look very good IMO
Bonk design, by far takes the longest to cut $40
NEW - Filled TG logo painted in turbo colors $45 [could easily do it yourself with orange/yellow sharpies and save $10]
This example is a demo, unless you specifically buy this very one, production examples WILL NOT have the box line around the logo.

I will also offer a larger size of 10X8 for $20 more. 2 inches both ways is considerably larger.
Shipping is $5 USA, $10 international. If you buy multiples, shipping discount may apply.

I have some of the prototypes available cheaper, take a look at the thread posted above.

I prefer to be paid via paypal "gift" option, that way they don't charge me for receiving $$.
[go to your pp account, click "send money", click "personal" then check "gift"]
Also will accept postal money orders.

Once again, if you have any custom ideas, let me know, maybe we can make it fly ,, I may be adding more designs to this thread depending on interest level.

not much i can add that hasn't already been said

These look awesome!

Can I ask, do they work on a similar principle to these? If not, can you elaborate on how you light them up?

Could you make an orange one so it looks more like the original TG16 logo?

Sure, looks like the same thing, except much thinner acrylic than mine.
For the blue pic, looks like he's beaming a laser to illustrate the concept, just like me. Looks like a decent deal with light included, but of course, wiating on a package from Asia can be nerve wracking sometimes.

I've rigged up some custom wood bases with LED strips in the bottom, looks great. Really is a bit time consuming though, wouldn't be worthwhile to offer here, as I don't have the spare time to order all the LED strips, power supplies, switches that are needed. Some guys use cathode tubes, some use fluorescent ,, You could rig up lasers, there are a number of options to light these up, but right now, I can't offer anything but ideas.

Google up "edge lit sign base" for more ideas ... There is one outfit that sells nice aluminum bases with a friction fit, I even bought one, intending to copy the simple design, but I lost interest and never got around to it.
edit: here is the place http://www.lumenedge.com/catalog.htm#leds They sell bases, lights, power supplies, edging ect. May get a bit pricey, if you are the least bit handy, I'd suggest creating your own.


Keith, that was gone over in the edge lit thread

They will be any color you want them to be, assuming its a color offered in LEDS ,,, Even if not, you could take clear ones and paint them orange for an orange tint. But multiple colors on 1 piece appears to be a tricky challenge, doable with some effort.

Hey would you be willing to trade for newegg business gift cards? I got $50 worth..

[ProfessorProfessorson]

I was interested in one of these, but then you had a mental breakdown and started accusing everyone of being pedophiles and other crap. Kinda shot yourself in the foot there. Too bad, because this looked like a really cool idea. Maybe someone else, someone sane and worth buying from will do something similar. That or maybe you could chill out and apologize, make peace, that would get my interest again.

Sounds reasonable, pm me.

Oh yeah sure, you were just ready to buy 14 of them, yup.
Damn, really shot myself there, I guess somehow I'll try to pull myself together and survive without any interactions with you whatsoever !
[Considering I didn't even know you existed until an hour ago, I think I should manage that fairly well].
And by the way, I don't sell turbo signs for a living. I have a well paying, full time job, and many things on the side as well. I thought I'd share these with other turbonuts at a reasonable price ,, If the truth be told, I wouldn't sell one to you if you offered me $200 for one.

Try to keep your emotions in check and not hijack sale threads with childish off topic banter.

Like I said in the other thread, you've taken crap way too personally in that other thread, and its not just me whose lost interest in this due to that. My emotions are not the problem here. From your reply there I am going to assume you are never going to have a change of heart. Its too bad because the people you were attacking could have been valued customers, large order or small, and also good friends to have on the forums. Like I said, if you ever have a change of heart, decide to mellow out and apologize to the people you were attacking, maybe I will get interested again, because I really do think you have a cool product here to offer. That may not apply to some others, but personally, I'm not taking anything you said personally. I've had far worse said to me here and elsewhere. Just another day.
