thanks Mike, You should know all too well You have the distinct (and rare) honor of actually being there: "grass-sh1t" It's farm country folks
Mike you did a great job on automotive spraying the background scene. It was a fun project start to finish.
The history in the rocks is sentimental to me. Those rocks are from the reminents of my dad, and Grandad's limestone barn walls. Well aged, and with plenty of history. It's those special little things that few will ever know, that make these projects so meaningful to us. As signfolks we change people's lives. I mean it. We actually make someone stop, if even for a second, in their busy lives and notice the extra detail that makes them say "oh, how nice.."

A really nice story of the rocks. Grandfather and Dad would be proud for sure.
Peace, Bob

Good stuff, Matt- would you post some details please- materials, hand-cut or cnc work, time invested in producing it etc? Thanks!
Posted by Matthew Rolli (Member # 4089) on :
THanks,
Ian: I'll work on adding details in the future. We keep our Gerber Sabre Router pretty busy.
Most dimensional work is fabricated on that, dry-fitted and spray paint finished. I tend to use aluminum composite backers, and HDU together because it adds strength and durability. Hope that helps.
