Great idea on the rubber washers...I guess galvanized nails would be helpful as well? Just completed our sign using a wood burning tool (Harbor Freight $9). Painted the letters black and coated with polyurethane.
Don't go overboard. The signs are often removed and rehung on posts in a more orderly fashion than individuals manage on their own. Your sign might also be moved to a different post in a different location.
We have no idea where our sign from 20 years ago is. It certainly isn't where we posted it.
