2 Fantastic signs carved by Ernie and Diane Balch on their home
built CNC router using VCarve Wizard.
Although the software does a great job of making the basic sign shapes,
the really hard bit is in the finishing and gilding, and Diane and Ernie have
done a tremendous job on these signs.
Both signs are cut from high density sign foam and painted. The lettering
on the Oak Tree Road sign is gold paint.
The Howling Wolf Inn sign includes Gilded gold leaf lettering and Blue Smalts
which is small glass beads packed and glued onto the surface to give
a stunning effect!
