Greetings and welcome to the neon attic. This neon sign website is here to provide you with answers about neon signs. Collecting neon signs, repairing neon signs and caring for them. I have set up galleries of my neon sign collection you can browse.
This neon sign site has proven to be helpful for many visitors. Thanks for taking time to contact me with your questions and kind comments. Special thanks to all who have made purchases from me. Now that it is 2007, I'm in process of converting the site to XHTML for today's browsers. Even though every page was upgraded and updated in June 2005 using CSS, I will be upgrading the pages again this year. Got to keep up with the times you know! I also have replacement tubes and channel letters to add on the respective pages.
This neon sign website's topics include: What neon is; How a neon sign operates; Precautions handling neon signs; Caring for your collectible neon sign; Replacing broken neon sign tubes yourself; Diagnosing a non-working neon sign; Testing neon tubes; How to pack and ship neon signs safely; Dealing with shipping companies and shippers in general. More added as new topics come to light!
Neon attic??? Well you see, my neon sign collection is in the attic of my house. For most of my cherished neon signs anyway! Hence this site's name - Neon Attic. I have several very large neons that I display at my repair shop. Feel free to browse this website through the neon sign galleries and neon sign information links to the left. I hope to help inform you as much as I know about neon signs. Sound like you're interested? Good. Click around and learn, knowledge is a good thing! Visitors here to just view and appreciate neon signs are most welcome! If you see a sign you are interested in, please contact me.
So who am I and why did I create this site? Well, I felt neon resources for the novice collector were poor at best. Mostly sign company web boards that really are not very novice-friendly. I figured I could help change that. I know the intended use of the web was to freely share knowledge. Sure seems like 85% of the web has gotten away from that. More and more sites try to charge for information. I'm old-school and believe in old-school web intentions. No, I'm not a neon tube bender. I don't work for a sign shop either. Actually I'm a mechanic by trade. So naturally, I like to take things apart and see what makes them tick! However, I've worked with neon signs for over 15 years now. I have learned a lot through trial and error playing with broken neon signs I purchased over the years. Plus, I do like showing off my prized neon signs! LOL! Please click the about neonaddict link on the left to read about me and how I feel about neon signs.
I ship neons right! I can teach you to do it right too! Please see the shipping and handling page for further details.
