Jim, pre-manufactured sign posts would save me a couple of hours making my own (time counts!). I’m a prospective customer - one with a couple of sets of decals that will eventually need to be mounted.

I’ve been running a Form3 SLA 3D printing system in my shop for about 5 weeks.  Nearly all of that time has been spent running production parts for my S scale kits (currently am running Sn2 trucks) … which got me a-thinkin’ about other products.

 

I’ve read that the recent trackside signs decals sales have been “underwhelming”, if I remember the emails correctly.  IMO, sales might improve if accurate posts were available.  The most common signs (W, WATER and bridge trespassing warning) shared similar post styles (old rail) with different bolt-on targets.  If there is sufficient interest, I’d be willing to design and print these targets in HO (and different scales if demand warrants) and offer to those wanting to use the decals to make dead-on-accurate signs.  Signs were be sold in small groups of the SAME sign so you can purchase a suitable quantity to reflect your layout (for example:  the “W” post would be sold in groups of 10, the “no trespassing” in groups of 8 to 10, and misc signs (WATER, COAL, etc.) in groups of 4 to 6 each within the package).  These would be sold direct to customers who would buy the decals from the Society to support “our cause”.

 

Let’s discuss …
