    Robkjv,

    Really like the look of your sign.

    I use centerline a great deal.

    Please show us what it looks like when you finish it.
    Happy Carving

  2. Default Thank you Al

    Hi Al,

    Thank you so much, you make it sound so easy? However it is Greek to me? Is there any place that has tutorials to show me how it works? If I get this to carve I will post for you all to see. Thanks so much for all the advise.

    You can also simulate centerline. By inverting the text and adding draft. This way uses the 1/16th carving bit, and takes a lot longer. But the depth becomes your choice this way.

    Measure twice... and then sneak up on it!

    Not sure how the quality of the picture will show but this is how it came out. Its a pretty basic plaque and quick carve but I think it really looks nice. I thank everyone who shares free patterns such as the praying hands. I am still new to this and I would not be able to make patterns like that yet.
