Hey Mr. Betz....how did you do the project. Hand carved...CNC? Looks good and clean and am sure you've got a happy customer.

Hi Doug.

These were done on our 408 Gerber Sabre Router.
We Routed the Sign Panel, then inscribed the Outlines
of the Lettering, which gives us the Layout of the Letters.
The Borders were V Carved using the Router.
We Routed the Letters separate. After painting and Gilding
we Applied the letters to the Sign and Gilded the Borders.
Total Signs: 4.
