My client is asking to modify an order of lettering sets, to fit them away from the wall (standoffs mentioned) and in a way that doesn’t use screws.
Are there any ingenious hacks I’m not yet familiar with 
I’m thinking some form of Command Strips - the standoffs however would not work with those. I could cut some plywood circles and glue them to the letters, which could then be command stripped? 
… Any Ideas welcome 
For a test I generated some sample text, and made a second copy. Using the Offset Shapes tool selecting inward and bevel to generate a smaller spline for command strips.
Another option:
Copy the text and draw some rectangles on top of it.
Union the rectangles together:
You can use the offset tool to make the small pieces smaller than the original text. You can also use the Docking tool to push all the small pieces (or even the letters) together to save material.
I love the unionised rectangle option, which I will recommend to the client as an idea. Thank you John, very helpful indeed.
I found some great adhesive spacers online which could also work well.
However, I like the idea of the letters having more body to the tops and bottoms using the rectangle method, I think that could look great!
If this is meant to be a permanent installation note that 3M sell double-sided adhesive meant for automotive applications (e.g. holding trim and emblems secure) that is incredibly sticky and long holding. I’ve learned this isn’t the type of thing where you compromise on quality if it’s meant to last long.
Copy that!
I’m with you on that. It’s very permanent.
The second tier Proform brand tape is also quite robust and permanent.
