Title: Light up soda menu letter measurements needed Post by: pinballdude on September 21, 2008, 01:19:24 pm Does anyone have a lightup menu that uses letters printed on clear plastic?
I need the measurement of the plastic the letter is printed on. The slot that accepts the letters is about 1 1/2 inches but the letters "bowed out" so I was wondering how much more length is needed to make them "bow". Don't know if 1/4 inch is enough. I have 2 signs and want the sign shop to make some menu items to put on it. Thanks Terry Title: Re: Light up soda menu letter measurements needed Post by: MoonDawg on September 21, 2008, 04:22:18 pm I have a non-lightup menu board with 2 1/2" slots and use 3" letters.
Why not cut pieces of cardboard to size and see what fits best? I used my computer to print a full page of the words needed on the menu, then had the sheet laminated at the copy store and I cut into strips to fit.

You can buy the ones that you can run through a laser printer, or you could have your local copy shop run them through a copier from your ink jet copy.
