Beautiful work, I wouldn't change a thing

I like it!
Can you elaborate a little on how you fabricated the cap? Is the lettering carved?
Posted by Amy Brown (Member # 1963) on :
Yes, please provide some cap details. I would also like to know about your mounting brackets.
Are the posts wood? Can't find decent posts around here anywhere.
Looks fantastic!!

Very Nice Brian. I'd like to know more about the fabrication too!

We built the cap from 4 pieces of HDU cut to the shape and laminated together (two 2" and 2 1"). The only carving is the tooth which is mounted on a 1" HDU oval. The posts are 6x6 cedar. I had the brackets fabricated by a local welding shop.
Thanks for the comments!

Elegant!
Just enough detail, well done.
I get the feeling your client was more than pleased. A sign befitting a cosmetic dentist!
Thanks for sharing the details and pics Brian. Joe

Brian, I was asked to quote on a similar sign today. The letters will be incised though rather than flat letter.
As I am new to this I am very curious on your final price on this unit.
