Who didn’t make a sign on their cnc. It’s a given that this contest is buzzing with them. I’ve made home signs, shop signs, boat signs and door signs. Just the other day I made a small desk sign. only 15cm wide. It came out of some scrap I had left over from a boat sign and I wanted to gift it to my car salesman who helped me out after my parked car got smashed by a passing car.

So I made him this small desk sign, carved with a wee 30 degrees engraving bit. Took way to long, but it’s smooth and crisp after adding color to the lettering and waxing the wood… I made a stand out of a magnetic phone holder that makes it totaly adjustable and looks classey too.


So there it is, my contest sign.
