    Here’s another just finished. Pine with natural color letters and it’s about 3′ long. There are three pics. The other two have two different post options. Which do you like best?

    I’ve started outlining the letters and it makes a big difference…..even if the lines are a bit squiggly 😕
    This one is for outdoors…..hence the glossy clear.

    Thanks,

    Joe,

    Nice work Joe!
    I like #3 with the square posts the best.

    I like the format with the square posts but I like No 1 best.

    Thanks Everybody!

    I like the raised posts too but I gave the customer both options. He’s doing the install and he chose the angled posts cause it’s easier 😕

    Thanks Again,

    Joe,

    What beautiful work!

    I actually like the slanted posts….the square would look nice capped off and gold leafed though….really nice work!
