The first two are from a beauty walnut chunk.

The third is Cuban Mahogany with an inlaid Purpleheart heart. It is beveled on the back edge to tilt the names up.

No.’s 4 and 5 are colored Maple.

The last is Brazilian cherry display names (also with the back edges beveled).

I really like the font you use. Do you make individual letters and glue them together or are each on solid wood?
