Nicely done, very much so nicely done. Watched someone else do the same thing but its a night and day with your routing and finish. The CNC bits did a great job, the other person used a V bit as wide as the letters so end result was alot of chisel carving and uneven depths along with non exact cuts. These bits are perfect, I dont know I would have thought of that. Hopefully I can hold these old hands steady enough but I guess we'll find out. Nicely done, very nicely done.
Thanks for this! I'd like to make signs, but can't afford the steep price tag of a cnc machine and wanted to start first with a handheld router. Glad you can get similar results!

This is an attractive sign. I love the font. I was a little puzzled as to how you were going to do the plank effect. I thought that you were you going to ruin the sign with the additional routed lines. It was really quite simple, wasn't it? You just didn't route as deep a line when you cut the plank effect. It's amazing what a simple bloke like me learns everyday here on RUclips. Thanks for the video. I love everything that you do.
nice job shane do you find it easier without using the plunge on your router i have always used the plunge when routing will give your way a try regards and never tried the milling ends you have been trying out they appear to leave a nice even finish without the need to then tidy up with dremmel
Cheers Wayne,I've not used the plunge for years now,I did at the beginning on a bigger router,but the one I have now is so small and light,its easier just to lift it in and out..I ordered the mill end bits by mistake, glad I did,they do clear out really good...

Loved the video, but I have 1 question. When you routed the horizontal lines from side to side, did you stop the router right where the painted area was, or did you have the router set more shallow so it didn't disrupt the painted area? Thanks for taking the time to make it! Doug
