Building signs as a hobby has become my thing. Count me in for any excuse to use the forge and power tools.
Wanted something unique, so I made this for a friend as a house warming gift.

Nice result.
Curious about a couple things:
What materials did you use?
What sort of finishes did you use?
Anything you’d do differently now that it’s done?
The sign is made from a couple types of woods.
I used a mahogany stain for the letters and finished with a mineral oil and beeswax finish.
I’m pretty happy with the results. If I make another one I might purchase pre-weathered wood for the white areas.
I am sure they will be well pleased. That looks great!
It is very attractive. I love to see a mix of different wood.
This is amazing. Great inlays!
How nuts did you go on the kerf calculations for this? It’s really gorgeous!
This is a lovely gift, you have a great eye for contrasts that work!
Beautiful!
That looks very nice, well done
