just finished them yesterday, the material is Alder with a Tung oil on it,
it gives it such a good finish.

I have often wondered why it is that
Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left".
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of
the fool to the left."
Very nice work..........!
Nice carve. Have not heard many on here using Alder for carving.
Alder is common around here, the grain is tight and it takes a good carving, I do a lot of outdoor carvings too.

Every one has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.
I use alder a lot. Like Perry said it carves very well with minimal fuzzies. I use what is considered cabinet grade and get it from a local guy who gets it from a commercial cabinet shop. The pieces are mostly end pieces to small for what they need. He gets it by the pick up load.
This a lot better quality of wood that you will get at the big box stores.

Great looking signs. What are the dimensions? It looks like one piece.
