why? nobody ever see's the back of the sign and the supports or anchor posts drilled down in the back. -- nm* - Peglegpete Aug 11, 16:41 4
- I'm just thinking about the logistics of making the 0s, transporting them, installing them as it would need to be sturdier than sheets of cardboard -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 11, 16:51 3
  - They're made of corrugated steel on a metal frame. It'd probably take a few weeks max to design and build the necessary frame to make this edit. - Will Hunting Aug 11, 16:55 2
    - yup. the letters on the front are bolted to the base at the end. each letter is several pieces so they do not have to deal with moving huge parts -- nm* - Peglegpete Aug 11, 17:09 1
      - I was just thinking of some tictok or frat putting it up for a prank. Of course the town can bring in an excavator to lift sheet metal -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 11, 20:28
