Hi Gary:
Well done, what fonts did you use?
 Keep in mind that  you will never get rich doing this
If you can buy your materials and a bit more from what you sell than you are ahead of the game
Wood, blades, finish (paint or stain or varnish) and time
Word of mouth will be your best advertising
Good Luck and I wish you all the best in the new venture

Times New Roman for the BATTEN and Scroll Beach Italic for the rest...I think lol. I like the Scroll Beach as it already has the bridges...less work for me till I get the hang of Inkscape...🤣 Still, on this first time I think I spent as much time designing it as I did cutting it 🤣  I hope it goes faster next time! I think for a while, I'll go on Inkscape once every few days and just design a sign like this even if I have no desire to cut it. Then I can print the pattern, look for islands or anything I messed up. That way I won't forget just how the heck I did it when I need to make one.

I'm retired and just want it to cover all the materials and supplies...maybe a little beer money also 😁

If I were making a sign like that I would charge $25-$35 depending on the size, amount of letters, type of material, stained or natural.  I always show my customer artwork before I start a project. That can take a lot of time.  I like to make enough to pay for my material, buy some new tools, and maybe a bit of mad money. Good luck.......pricing is hard.
