Non Argumentive Project this week
« on: September 17, 2009, 12:02:47 AM »
Way to much bickering again around here, so on a lighter note...........I decided Monday I should have a proper street address thingy ;)

I have a router, how hard can it be? Quick Google search and I'm off. Only problem is I want to use a 1/2 log so it will have to be done free hand.
Day 2..............


FInished the carving aspect today, stained the high bits dark, will use a lighter stain on the surrounding areas.



sorry, all my bikes are running great!

What model Honda is 1983 Ingram?
Is that the prototype with spoked wooden wheels?
Go on carve yourself a rack of carbs Seaweb. ;D

I have to add argument! You should have used a lighter colored wood, the letters stand out better! ;D
Actually it is very nice work there. ;)
What would have been really cool is if you were able to burn the letters into the wood.
Dang, now I need a router!

Guernseys are brown & white.  Holsteins are black & white.  Jeez!  Do your research!

Yes, then used carbon paper to transfer it to wood.

  Nice job Derek! 8)  Nice subject too! :) Reminds ME that I had to take ours down because of who made it (David did mine AND one for my Dad) So, I really need to get busy myself and do up a couple. Thanks for reminding me, I think? ::) :D ;)
