Paul hd Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hi Gordie. Did you cut the letters out and then paint them before replacing. ? I ask as I can't see any signs of pilot holes. Brilliant work. 👠Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordster Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Hi Gordie. Did you cut the letters out and then paint them before replacing. ? I ask as I can't see any signs of pilot holes. Brilliant work. Hi Paul...I cut them out on a 5 or 6 degree angle, and cut counterclockwise. That makes them stand out about an eighth of an inch or so.Yes I paint them and then replace them.I stain the wood for base and then spar varnish it.I don't put spar on the paint as it turns them yellow.

Thanks Gordie for that info. Didn't know that cutting counterclockwise would make a difference. You learn something new every day. 👌. Still not sure why I don't see any sign of pilot holes.

You learn something new every day. . Still not sure why I don't see any sign of pilot holes. I use 1/16 th inch bit and usually drill in bottom of the letter somewhere.I tilt the table to the left and cut counter clockwise.Now in the letter O in Knotty , I cut that center Clockwise, and it protrudes in the other direction.give this a try, you will pick it up in a sec..enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
