One of my sponsors has sorted me out with a sign for my stand at Rudgwick. I don't want to describe it in great detail, because I'm making a modification to it and I want it to be a surprise

However, I'm having issues with how to hang/mount it in my gazebo. It's a 2'x2' sheet of perspex with rounded corners, there are no holes drilled in it and I don't have access to a pillar drill so am reluctant to drill holes as perepex has a tendancy to chip when you drill it unless you're very careful.

I thought about sticking some baton to the back and putting hooks in to hang it, but if I do that it won't hang straight as its pivot point will be behind the back sheet of perspex. Also I don't want to just prop it up on a table in case I damage the bottom edge.

Anyone got any ideas on a cheap way of mounting it?

How about two small c-clamps, one at screwed at each top corner? This would give you a fixing point to hang the sign, providing it's not too heavy.

I don't think clamps would hold it for hanging.

Al I think I'm going to follow your advice and go for drilling it. Got some brand new drill bits so hopefully it should drill through cleanly

Fingers crossed....

Hi Steve, Al's got a valid idea, however failing that I have a narrow cone cutter thats ideal for plastic, I will have that and my de-walt with me at the comp if you need it.
