Also, thanks to Chip & Andy for posting those pics of us presenting the sign to Mrs. Thornton. I really had alot of fun putting this together and I'm looking forward to the next project. The techniques I used were taught to me by my great friend, Jeffrey Claus. He's been making custom wooden signs for about 2 years now and has just formed an LLC - Wooden Tattoos. He was a tattoo artist for years, that's how we met, and now, this is his creative outlet. The creativity seems to be contagious, so now I'm seeing ideas everywhere. When I'm not working on a "business" project, I'm cobbling something together for myself....Lake's probably right...chisels are in the future for sure! I also made a sign for the Jetsetter's 1st anniversary - I'll post pics in another thread for anyone who might be interested. Josh
