Scrolling letters and showing them off

[3billy3]

Hi everyone, greetings from England!

 

I've been asked to scroll a name, it's seven letters long and the request is for a different wood for each letter - no problem so far.

 

The customer wants individual letters that can be handled and shown around, but would also like the letters to be able to sit in some sort of rack or stand. The first thing that came to mind was to simply use a block with a shallow grove cut in it where the letters could sit.

 

Anyone have any different ideas or thoughts on this project and how I can show the letters off in a stand?

 

Thank you

 

Neil

Neil you could have the letters linking as a puzzle some thing like this.

You could use dowels mounted in your base board with holes on the bottom of each letter.

Help yourself Dan everything I do is for sharing. Cut the letters first then cut the puzzle shape after on each letter. Have fun. Roly
