Nicely done. Is the center a sunken panel? (raised border?) I like it.

The border is raised. It's made from 3/4" thick HDU. I ripped a few strips to width (about 4" wide) on the tablesaw. I then routed a cove detail (part that is gilded). The border pieces were cut to fit like moulding or trim, then epoxied in place.
Thanks for the compliments. Bob

Yes, it's two single-faced signs. There is a piece of 2" x 2" x 1/16" angle iron screwed to the back of the sign near the top (runs almost the length of the sign). There are a couple holes in the angle iron that hang on pins that were mounted on the posts (welded them in the shop). Installation was easy, just hang the sign on the pins and secure the bottom to the posts with hidden brackets.
Thanks again, Bob
