Phantom Scroller Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Hi All. Just finished this for a neighbor of mine who gives me wood for free so the sign costs, you got it nothing. One top coat of yacht vanish to go on and it's done. The font is called FREEDOM 9 Wood is dark walnut and light oak letters, Routered edges sprayed black sanded off then vanished, stuck on letters water proof wood glue job done. Thanks for viewing Roly Edited January 19, 2014 by Phantom Scroller lawson56 and Doug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatie Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I bet the neighbour is looking to see what else he can give you so that he can get more excellent gifts in return. Good one Roly. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Roly, Great sign. But then, I have yet to find something you do that is not rewarding just to look at. You are a true craftsman. Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Marc Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 love it too Roly and thaks again for the Western letters. Will show you the signs when done. Just a question, the scalloping around the sign was it done with a router? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubgoofy2003 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Hey, that is one fine piece of work ! Beautiful wood too. Nice choices of everything. I was wondering about the edging too. Thought maybe you used a drum sander or even the scrollsaw. That would be some work though. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
