I posted a request a few weeks back for a pattern and Bob jumped in an helped me with it.  Made of oak with a piece of oak stained walnut for a  backer.   It is 3/4"x 8"x24" and is going to be hung outside on porch.  Used poly that is used on boats for a finish which should hold up being on the oak.  My saw is 21" so I cut the board into, cut the pattern, than glued back together.  Thanks again Bob!!

Great work by you and Bobscroll.

You did a great job and I could not see any gaps from cutting the board in half but,
I thought I would make a suggestion or two. Since your saw is 21" you should not have
had to cut the board. You could have used a spiral blade (although I personally have done
very little practicing with a spiral) or you could have turned the blade backward in the
blade clamp and pulled the wood toward you as you cut instead of pushing the wood
toward the throat of the saw as you normally do. 
Not meant to sound like criticism, just advice for your consideration.

God Bless! Spirithorse

I had thought about the options you suggested.  But with the letters so big I didn’t want the roughness of the spiral cut to show.  And I didn’t trust my cutting with the blade in backwards.  Thanks for the comments always welcome!
