a stop sign and a speed limit sign? I need to know the L and W of the speed limit and the radius of the corners. L and W will do though. I also need the diameter of the stop sign. Anyone that can go outside and measure it? I’m stuck at work till 5. Cookie for whoever can do it. ---

I’m making replica signs for a truck show next weekend. I want to make a stop sign that says DRAG instead of stop and a speed limit sign that says PRESSURE LIMIT 0 to encourage people to give me good footage at the show. ---

From my engineering details stop signs are or should be… The pole that holds the sign 7’, the actual sign is 30" x 30" I haven’t found the other one yet ---

do you need the details of the stop sign? I can’t find the other detail for the life of me - - You might want to check in one of the PennDot manuals Standards/Specifications: Street Signs: Details ---

Pub 236M for PennDOT. That one isn’t available online for free like most of them. I will have to track it down in the office. ---
