Claim:
A method of making a sign stand assembly, said method comprising the steps of: (a) providing a base member using a blow molding process, said base member having at least one hollow compartment therein for placement of a ballast substance therein; said base member having an upper surface and a lower surface connected together at their outer edges to form said at least one hollow compartment; said upper surface and said lower surfaces being joined together at least at one area separate from said outer edges to form a planar multi-layer supporting portion for placement of at least one resilient member; said lower surface of said base member having a plurality of feet members thereon for supporting said sign stand assembly on a surface; and a plurality of wheel members attached to said lower surface for allowing said base member to be selectively moved from one position to another; (b) connecting at least one resilient members to a sign member; and (c) connecting said at least one resilient member to said base member; said at least one resilient member being connected to said base member at said multi-layer supporting portion.
