Christmas presents

Just got done making a sign for my step dad. thought I would show how I did.


I started with a pencil sketch and then inked it in.
I then scanned that into my computer and scaled it to size and printed it out on 6 pieces of 8.5 x 11 paper.


I transferred that to the plywood and cut it out and started painting
I also took an old weathered 1 x 12 that had been outside for a few years and sketched the lettering on


after it was all painted I put a plywood spacer behind the truck and mounted it to the 1 x 12, I then added a french cleat to the back of the sign and sanded it a little to make it look like it's been around awhile



here's a picture of the truck after it was built 2 years ago, I also pinstriped the flames and lettering on the truck

and here it is with the sign I made earlier this year.
