I don’t have any other way to make the letters other than free hand. Im sure they make something to use as a pattern. But I think it’s kinda cheating on your self. It may be faster with the patterns.? But I think I done it pretty fast just drawing it and going strait to routing. Do they make patterns that make letters look like what I did here?

This is the previous pastors name and sign. I tried to match it close, to match the rest of the sign that’s outside.

Nice work Miller, I’m sure there are some patterns out there but I think you got the free handing down, and the thing about patterns unless you have multiple sizes you limit yourself where as your freehand method the world is your oyster.

Thanks man. And I didn’t think about the sizes part. That would suck if somone had to buy a set every time they made something. Lol. Glad I don’t need um. Did you see the numbers I done free handed too? The ones for the church? They were fun. I had to buy a 1/16 or a 1/8 of a inch router bit to do them.jimboslice wrote:

That’s great work Zach! Something to be very proud of especially free handed!!
nice skills bro!
kutos to you and your time invested in doing this free hand, I would have taken 10 hours to do that and then find out I spelt larry wrong….lol
Great job, that’s literally about 10 times better than I could do. I’m terrible at free handing letters, mine would taper in size without a template.
That’s great work there Miller. If u wanted everything to match, u could pick up an X carve for a couple grand. Lol
[emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] I had to double and triple check. I thought I had miss spelled something. I sent a pic to my wife to make sure it was right. Lolcomp56 wrote:

You do better free hand than I could do with a template. Nice work.
