heppnerguy Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 What a fun idea, but might fill an entire wall if one travels much Dick heppnerguy bobscroll 1 Quote
wombatie Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 What a fabulous idea and equally fabulous work. Well done. Marg Quote
Rob Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Beautifully cut. I particularly like the little additions (shell, bird, boat etc) they really add interest. Rob Quote
koehler788 Posted April 24, 2019 Author Posted April 24, 2019 Thank you all for the nice comments !! I have to laugh so I don't get mad, but my wife does not like the Tennessee plaque. She doesn't like how dark it is. Ihave to re cut it...lol. I chose that wood because it looked smoky. I used the wood to try to make it scenic, and most of them are beach themed. I tried to place the dark grains to resemble water. bobscroll 1 Quote
TripleJScroller Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Awesome idea and great work! Personally I think the Tennessee one looks great, I like the darker wood. Quote
meflick Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Nice work, but like Dick's thought wondering how many trips would take up a whole lot of wall space. I have collected small refrigerator sizedmagnets from most of the places we have visited. They take up a lot less space for sure. But I do like yours - they are much more attractive on the whole.

koehler788 Posted April 24, 2019 Author Posted April 24, 2019 Lol... We don't travel a lot, these aren't that big (10.5" x 2.5" ) either. She wants to go to Jamaica and Hawaii. Most of the time we go on vacation is to Panama City Beach, Florida. We have a good spot on the wall for these also. If it gets too big, I can place them in strategic spots throughout the room. Quote

koehler788 Posted April 24, 2019 Author Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Here is a re-cut of Tennessee, my wife didn't like the darker version. Michigan and California over the next couple of days, weather permitting, kinda chilly here in Beech Grove, Indiana. Edited April 24, 2019 by koehler788 bobscroll 1 Quote

OzarkSawdust Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Just saw this thread...WOW! I like those! We travel a lot in our RV as well as all of our friends. What wood is that? Do you make the patterns with Inkscape? I have to try one (some) of those. You did a beautiful job on all of them! Quote
bobscroll Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 Hi Gary, I made the patterns using Inkscape doing the intersecting word patterns, Travis has done some tutorials on how to use Inkscape doing these type of patterns and other things with Inkscape, The program is free to get off the internet, Bob OzarkSawdust 1 Quote

The wood is Poplar, I choose a board with s much color as I can. All players came from one board. OzarkSawdust 1 Quote
OzarkSawdust Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 Times New Roman for the big letters? What font did you use for the small letters? When I finish Poplar it never comes out that good looking! What do you use? I've got to review Travis' video. When I tried to do one of our names it put the last name on top of the first names...I need it to be opposite. Quote

bobscroll Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 Hi Gary, The font used for the small letters was "free4all" It was on another forum I was on some years ago, Bob Quote
