Sometimes when a project is large and complicated it will be weeks of fabricating and finishing. Then add in the tough winter weather which makes scheduling a day to go out and install a moving target and it can seem like the sign has always been in our shop. Well today we finally installed a large carved sign we started in early January. It is made on a light weight curved wooden form that is built to accept a 1" HDU face. We had to carve and edge glue the face prior to laminating it to the frame with MAS epoxy since it was so big, 10' X 5' X 9". Then we started the whole sand, prime, paint and decorate cycle. So a month later and this morning we packed up the truck with all the tools we could think of loaded the sign and headed to Concord NH about 55 miles away. Murphy;s law says the further away from the shop the installation the more chance you will forget the crucial piece so we always over pack when traveling to install signs.
I love the curve and the way you achieved it.
