I’ve decided to start a new thread that focuses on my projects.

Fresh off the X Carve is a sign I’ve made for my wife.

Also interested in the font… :sunglasses:

Its called “Freestyle Script” Its in Aspire, so I imagine it is also in V Carve.

That is a good looking sign

Then it’s probably one of the fonts in Microsoft Office.

Thanks.

did you glue up the sign or buy it that way?

In this particular case, I purchased the blank sign from AC Moore for $5.00 aft using a coupon. I could have easily put one just like it together with all the scrap I have laying around.

Here is my latest project. It took several tries to get it right. It’s fresh off the X Carve and now has to get sanded and finished.

The font for “DEATH” is called “Viner Hand ITC”

That’s super cool! I love anything that can pay for the XC… :sunglasses:

Have you thought about nesting those a little closer? There seems to be quite a lot of white space in between the ornaments. Maybe you just need the structure to support the cut outs. What do I know?

From what I see on the forum, you know quite a bit. I left some room for the profile cuts to cut out the Snowmen, plus some extra for a safety margin, in case something went horribly wrong.

Yeah you’ve got plenty of room to tighten that up and increase your part yield. Consider flipping every other row so that you can interlock them head to head.
