How to Make Your Own Wooden Signs
1. How to Make Your Own Wooden Signs
Are you the kind of person who loves expressing what you have inside but you would like what you express to be exhibited on something permanent
rather than on paper? Well, no need to worry because now you can actually do so on wooden signs and not just any wooden signs but wooden signs
made by you. So, how does one go about the business of making wooden signs? Well, first of all you will need to know the tools you need to use. They
are actually the following things:
1-A saw.
2-Wood.
3-A pencil.
4-Pen and craft knife.
5-A ruler or straight edge.
6-Nails inches to be advised by the seller.
7-Paint or varnish.
8-Stencils.
9-Masking tape.
10-Wood router.
11-Frame hangers.
A good wood sign is made from the best type of wood, thus it is important that you choose something that will be easy to work with that is it should have
a big work surface but a small hanging surface. The wooden signs or plaques you are making will take you a couple of hours to finish but remember that
for you to come out with the best, your patience is required. Use the ruler to mark the edges of the piece of wood you will be using. After the marking and
identifying the space enough for the message you can place the borders.
The next step is to put all the pieces together using nails if you will be using different pieces. You can also add a stake to your wooden signs at this
stage if you will need to put them in the lawn or anywhere outside the house. Smoothing the sign with a sand paper will now make it easier for you to
apply the base coating which you will have to leave to dry.
Now with the stencil put down your words on the sign. Usually one is supposed to draw a half or three quarter inches to connect the interior and exterior
of the letter. Clamping or taping of the stencil on your wooden signs is what follows. This is followed by painting over the stencil and then you should put
your wooden signs in a cool place to dry well. Just for your information if you are asking what was the wood router needed for then the answer is if you
want a rustic appearance in your wooden signs then use the wood router to curve your words in the sign and the frame hangers will be used to put the
sign up as soon as it is dry and ready.
Making wooden signs is an enjoyable activity in that you can come up with great things like a poster for your business instead of having your posters in
print. If you need more ideas you can order a book from Amazon on the subject of wooden signs. Amazon usually ships their products as that is their
custom. So, if you have an idea that you want to verbalize in a unique way do not draw or print, instead try making wooden signs.
