They're called tri face, Roger. I used to install them way back in the day when I worked construction and maintenance for Peterson Outdoor Advertising in Orlando. Nothing like hanging over the top and pulling 48 of those 18' tall panels up 50' or more, by rope/hook. Ah, those were the days. Some fool had the bright idea to install one on one of their super poles. Those puppies were 125' at the top.Originally posted by Burque73 View Post
It got dark so options were getting slim for the next tag. I found a backlit bilboard, led's I think, and another with the sectional slats that turn to reveal different messages. If my fairground pic is accepted, either one of those two kinds of bilboards is the tag. An LED type or a rotating message type bilboard.

Tri face huh? That's much easier to say than the sectional slats that turn to reveal different messages.Originally posted by gsrick View PostThey're called tri face, Roger.

So, any tri faces or LED types in your neck of the woods?
Or maybe in another neck of a different woods someplace else??Roger

Sorry Roger, I havn't been on a bike in a couple of weeks. Well for a pleasure ride that is. We have tri face boards around and LED boards, I'll try to get one sunday or monday. My problem is coming up with something good for a new tag. I've used them all up.Originally posted by Burque73 View PostTri face huh?

Dang Rick, I'm sorry for you. A couple of weeks??
Here's some ideas :
An old school arcade
Police station w/ bikes
News, medical or sherrif helecopter
Tattoo/ piercing place
A giant menorah or star of David
Motorcycle salvage yard
Disc golf course
A pontoon boat
Salvation Army red bucket
A beach
Vintage bus like a VW
Hobby shop with rockets, planes etc.
A giant flag
Dog park
A cave or tunnel
These just came to mind. Some may have been done before.Roger

I've done all but the ones in bold. The beach would be easy for me though it is an hour away, but not for most everyone else. Old school arcades are on Daytona Beach's board walk, I may be able to do that. I'll have to remember that one when I'm over that way. The MC salvage yard closed up years ago. I'm not sure if I did that one before it closed or not. Florida doesn't do caves or tunnels, we're at sea level or just above and we have this thing called an aquifer below Florida. Thanks for the other ideas. The Salvation Army bucket shouldn't be too hard at least for the next day or two.Originally posted by Burque73 View PostDang Rick, I'm sorry for you. A couple of weeks??

Combo Tattoo and Barber ShopOriginally posted by Burque73 View PostSince the weather is warming up I thought I'd bump this up. Is anyone near a Tri Face or LED Billboard to get this going again?
Barber poles on sides of sign in front of bldg door at right middle all in 1 shop, should have went in and taken a pic.

Wahoooo! Nice going, but did you get your bike washed?
Just one request, go back into edit those posts and click on the pic to enlarge then copy the bigger picture and paste back into the post so we can see the tags.
Thanks and glad to see this get out of the rut!Roger

Older tag said babers pole and tattoo studio separately. My phone isn't cooperating nor is the forum on uploads. Bikini car wash new tag but not really fair since I live in FL. Rick could find this one with ease and prob knows where I took this lolOriginally posted by trevor View PostI see the new tag...barber/tattoo shop? Where did he get the old tag? It would be nice if there wasn't so much chin wagging as to confuse just what the heck the tag is...
for now we will go with any combo shop that had at least a tattoo or barber shop...more fair than a bikini car wash..for some reason I put the posts in wrong order.Last edited by Guest; 02-17-2017, 07:50 PM.
