    This is how my project came out. Could have been better but for a first attempt, and since it's a give-away it will do. Think I'm going to try doing a two carve version next time; do carve regions on the main sign, glue a contrasting wood on then do a final carve.

    Thanks everyone. Took about 2 hours of sanding. I should have added more draft to the small letters then they would not have been so rough on the sides, and had a little chip out on some of the ends of the letters. Comes with experience I guess. I would have liked the stain to be darker as well. I think it would have looked a little better with paint.

    Remember darren, you don't have to be good to paint, just patient. But that came out very good. I think I may revisit our approach to our signs with the two tones. Nice job.
