October 17, 201213 yr I've been assigned at my day job to construct an awards sign/bulletin board so to speak. Not sure what you call it. It will live at our administration build.  The plan    Start with cardboard mock up.   Make template for cuting the top of the sign   Cutout some parts    Back side of sing, note the near the top the plwood is angled to be used as a french cleat   Some laminate work    More laminate work and laying out the glass panels.   A jig to hold the panels in place for drilling and attaching.  Somewhere in Kenya.... a village is missing its idiot!

October 17, 201213 yr Wow, very nice Rich and I love the way you document the steps and the process. Going to look very nice. Will you be doing the lettering on top in wood or will it be stenciled and painted on?John MoodySite AdministratorJohn Moody Woodworkshttp://www.johnmoodywoodworks.com
October 17, 201213 yr Author My notes just say " lettering priced separately". I assume it's going to a professional sing shop or perhaps the school district print shop. I'm not really sure at this point. John Moody said:Wow, very nice Rich and I love the way you document the steps and the process. Going to look very nice.

October 18, 201213 yr Rich, I have always envied your job. Great work my friend. I don't know if you remember me telling you, but I worked in a carpenter facilities maintenance shop for Sea World of San Diego, and we got to do a lot of work like this, odds n ends and crafty projects, all the way to nice cabinet work for our office areas, store displays, roofing, hanging doors, you name it, if wood was in it, we did it. I miss those days after seeing your work in your district shop. I think it's a district shop right?What a great job you have Rich, thanks for sharing.John MorrisThe Patriot WoodworkerProud Supporter of Wounded Warrior Project and Homes For Our Troops
