kobblers Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Why don't you buy a small plunge router and learn how to create an inset so you can place the plaque directly into the wood, secured at the back with a epoxy resin. Plunge routers are cheap as chips as are the cutters if you're only using them now and again. This video explains in a roundabout way what I mean: Hope this helps. Rick. Although that looks very nice Rick it might be a long winded approach if Steve has to go out and fit them in situ. First off he's going to need a generator to power his DeWalt router. Then if it's pissing down with rain he'll probably electrocute himself.........."no bad thing as he sniggered at my car"................ and it's going to take him ages. Alright, hammer 'n' a sharp chisel then to create an inset If you can get a thick piece of Traffolyte and cut out the centre to the size of your plaque (assuming they're all the same size that is) you can attach the Traffolyte to the bench and then use it as a guide as to where to chisel. Just a suggestion Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Muppet Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 How about offering them to be made of mettallex (I think that's what it's called) then nobody would want to steal them and they could be glued on securely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenB Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I'm not going to be doing the installation, so the actual detail of how they are fitted isn't my problem, I was just hoping to come up with an easy answer for the fittings that are involved.

StevenB Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Do you mean you have wasted our time.........Nights of endless sleep worrying................ Not at all, however, there may have been a few answers to questions I didn't ask. I'm grateful to everybody that has taken the time to answer & still hope that somebody out there has the killer answer for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
