Im not a sign maker.

Jeff · October 25, 2021, 08:49:04 AM

But I made a sign yesterday. Used a barrel lid, an old board, a scrap of plywood, and a vizio quick connect instruction sheet out of a tv box to cut a free hand tree template. Even found a blade in the tool box for the 200 yr old craftsman jigsaw. I also added a solar light we had here.

Looks good, was the jigsaw steam or waterwheel? ;D

Jeff · October 25, 2021, 09:03:23 AM

Ungrounded full metal jacket!

samandothers · October 25, 2021, 09:08:36 AM

Those neurons are firing right on time, very nice. I have a few of Dad's old shock therapy tools. Its one place I like the plasticky stuff, they seem happy on the shelf :D.

HemlockKing · October 25, 2021, 09:47:54 AM

Look good, you could get those solar spot lights that stick into the ground and point them at the sign for night time? Edit:nvm I just looked again and see one on top of the post! Well done.

Jeff · October 25, 2021, 09:52:58 AM

Yea, it has to be in the post, and on a bad winter, that aint enough. Ive seen those gate posts completly disappear!

@Percy, I don't have plans on adding text, butcha never know.

So y'all know where to turn in when you come visit.

Bert · October 25, 2021, 11:31:29 AM

Looks great! Pretty sure I have that same jigsaw. :D Cut out the corners of a counter top a few months ago to put in a sink and I was holding it very loosely as the metal case started to heat up. The anticipation of getting zapped was strong but fortunately never happened.

Did you notice what he did there? When coming down the road, the first bear you come to tell you which way to bear (turn). From the left, bear left. From the right, bear right... :D

Very Nice! Those creative vibes are good!

@SawyerTed Howbouta back rub?

Now I gotta shovel up some dirt to fill it

SawyerTed · October 26, 2021, 06:05:05 PM

Jeff! Jeff! Jeff! All I can say is you deserve a back rub! I faxed one to you! :D

That's a lot of work and looks great! And you said you aren't a stone mason! :D

Old Greenhorn · October 26, 2021, 06:41:54 PM

Ted, I think meant to say he is not a "Stoned Mason' obviously he does pretty good with stone, either flat or round. Please don't make any more suggestions, or the next thing you know he will have ashlar powered pump with a fountain and alternating light colors at night, some fish, and maybe some guy with a sandwich board and big foam rubber hat.
Nicely done (again) Jeff. Let us know how many folks pull into your drive thinking you are running a high end spa or restaurant.
