Anyone know of/used before custom neon light services?
I need to get neon sign built and was wondering if anyone has experience of this and who they would recommend?
The sign would be for indoor use and consists of very simple lines. Grateful for any pointers ;-)

Graphic Thought Facility:
http://www.graphicthoughtfacilit…They did their neon sign stuff way back int he early 90's for a chain of Japanese restaraunts. Nice stuff. I recently made enquiries about having a neon sign made. A record label wanted to get one of my logos made into a neon sign for their artist as a sort of shmoozy gift. I aksed how much in case I wanted one for the studio too. The cost, for a very simply outline of the words ALI LOVE was nearly £1000.00+Vat. I was very surprised by this at first but then thought about the man hours and the hand-skill involved and its reasonable.
There is now a fleixble neon tube on the market. It looks just like glass neon and it functions very similarly with reactive gases in coloured tubing, but its a soft rubbery tube so you can mold it yourself by hand and re-use it over and over.
Don't know of any UK carriers yet though, just a few in the US.
