How thick is the vinyl? The banner we had was probably about 1mm thick (maybe ever so slightly less) but it had rings around it so it could be cable tied up to things like railings or a fence. Okay that might not help if you've got nothing to cable tie it to. > > Anyone got a bright idea on how to get or make a frame for one of these > things? Couple of lumps of wood in a bucket full of concrete with the banner cable tied to it? (Sorry engineering isn't my strong point).
