That look good. I like the fact that you can see it is real handcarved wood.

Thanks everyone!

This is signmaking that is really fun for me.......sometimes I wish I didn't carve em so fast (so i could enjoy the process longer [Smile] )

Phil, it's 1 1/4" thick and 10+ inches tall. It's mounted off the ground with stainless screws from the back. Easy to remove when the sign needs re-coating.

Thanks Again,

Joe,
