Material - Standard is red oak in 3/4 inch board, but I really like the fake wood PVC vinyl as it is really white and cuts a fine line, whereas fine detail is prone to chipping, depending on the artwork and wood. Material thickness is the customer's choice, but prices assume a 3/4 inch red oak board. Prices vary for other materials and thicknesses.
One Side - Price is 0$.50/square inch - Two Sided - $1.00/square inch
Artwork can be provided as either a jpeg or bitmap file. A draft of the simulated cut will be completed and sent to the customer in an email before the actual cut is completed.
This is the first big sign I have made under contract. >> It is 16 inches wide and 20 inches tall, on 3/4 inch Azek. >> Azek is a really nice PVC board that cuts like wood, and really takes a nice edge, since it doesn't ever chip. >> I cut the letters and graphic art using a 90 degree bit. The edging and groove were done with a 1/4 inch ballnose cutter. >> The paint is an acrylic latex (black) >> I was able to measure the mounting holes for the artwork so that it was easy to pre-drill them.
Lettering can either be incised or raised. For raised lettering, the background will be smooth or can be textured in a simulated style of handcarving with a rounded gouge. The gouge cut overlap, stroke length and angle can be customized to your preference. Contact pierre@roxchox.com to start the order for your custom sign.
