[rdowdy95]

Hey guys how many screws should I  put in one of the happ retainers.  Project Arcade looks to have two would that be big enough, and also what kind of screws wood screws. or te black drywall screws?

I have 3 wood screws in mine.  Although I imagine black drywall screws would work well too if you could find them small enough.

I've never seen one of these things but I ordered it - can it be glued into place on the bottom and screwed on the top (in case you want to change marquees)?

Do the screws show?

Most cabinets I've dealt with have a groove for the marquee glass/plexi to slide into the bottom, and the top has between 4-5 screws on top to hold the retainer on.

Others have retainer on both top and bottom.  Screws are used to hold it in.  I'd go with rounded black screws (preferably either security or Phillips).  Sure they show, they all do.  I wouldn't glue, eventually it'll give way.

If you use black screws (or paint them black) they will not be terribly noticeable on the bottom piece.  Especially when your marquee is lit, it's hard to see them because of the contrast from the marquee light.

I guess I will go four screws and paint them all black, actually I need the rounded kind though which I don't have.  I will have to go to the Depot today and get some.

I used epoxy on the bottom and nothing on the top. The top is tight enough by itself.
