Something a bit different

[SharonB]

Your project came out great. Congratulations on getting them mounted.

It was the freestanding letters on top that I was asking about. Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
A little earlier in this thread I mentioned the method used. The letters are 3" high Arial text carved 1/8" deep into the face of the 1/2" Baltic Birch plywood signs. I used a 3/16" carving bit for the raster carved letters.
I stained the plywood with Minwax Red Mahogany and then painted two coats of Modern Masters Pharaoh's Gold acrylic paint into the letters. Final step was spraying three coats of Helmsman Spar Varnish on all surfaces.

This close up should make it clear. The first shows one coat of gold in Benton and then two coats on Benton and one on House. The build up is clear.

Just in case you were instead asking about the freestanding Letters on the top of the wall, they are fabricated of Aluminum. Hope this helps Mike
