Hi All, just wanted to post a pic or two of my new sign post. I’ve been shy about putting it up because,, I have a good job but I wanna work for me. So here is my sign post. Now I gotta get me a sign. I really wish I could find me a big ol circle saw blade to hang from it. Whata ya’ll think. :? I’m thinking a 52” blade would look good hanging from here. :D [color=darkblue][b]Well, here it is. The sign is pretty much done now. I tried to just stencile the letters on it, but that didn’t work. I ended up routing the letters out and painting them in. The sign is 2’H X 4’L X 4”T. -- Thanks The WoodButcher http://woodbutchernc.tripod.com/ |

A 52” blade would get my attention that is for sure. Your sign will look good. -- Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful- Joshua Marine |

Maybe you can make a wooden saw blade to hang underneath your existing sign? That would let them see the name as well as relate it to sawing. -- Bill, Turlock California, http://www.brookswoodworks.com |

You should be able to find a circle blade if you keep your eyes open. There are a few smaller ones on ebay right now. -- Allen, Milwaukee, WI |

I think Harold’s idea is awesome! And it could be any kind of saw blade – what about one of those two-man lumberjack jobbies? -- Eric at http://adventuresinwoodworking.com |

Harold, your idea is good and unique and I second that or third it :) Anyway really nice sign guys, I made one too, it says “Custom SawMilling” on a 10-12 foot slab of 2” thick Pecan…. just too darn heavy to pick up and mount….it is on the “List”..for the tractor/front-end-loader….I was thinking a really big ole ripping circular sawmill blade or one like Eric suggested the two-handed type would be cool…bolted in over the diagonal brace would look neat and catch attention to your custom saw-milling service…definitely get the point across :) Ya think… Be well… -- Frank, Dallas,TX , http://www.allthingsrustix.com , “I have a REALLY BIG chainsaw” |
