Dance Raised Inlay Sign Pattern

Here's something a bit different.  I've been cutting signs lately with images cut in the letters of a word or phrase, like the Music and Soccer signs below.  This one was done similarly for Dancers. Instead of cutting out the figures and leaving an open space, I decided to cut the figures at a 5 degree angle cut on the scroll saw.  This allows the figures to pop out and hold instead of dropping out altogether.  I cut the DANCE from teak and also the figures, but I took the figures and dipped them in a dark stain, then replaced them in the word. This was all mounted on a rectangle base of cherry and sprayed with a clear sealer.  The pattern shows the left degree cut that is necessary and the direction you should cut to get similar results.  To be sure, do a sample test cut before committing to the final cut.
