skipj Report post Posted October 25, 2008 I don't normally comment because I don't feel qualified to do so. However, your carving takes my breath away. One doesn't have to be a expert to appreciate you work. SkipJ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayban Report post Posted November 2, 2008 Hidepounder, that's top notch stuff, for sure. Do you free-hand your lettering or do you have stencil-like thingys?? I like the simplisity and western look of the fonts you use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like the simplisity and western look of the fonts you use. Thanks Rayban....I downloaded a bunch of fonts that I sort thru to find what I want to use with a pattern. I use Adobe Elements to manipulate the lettering until I like it, then trace them on and cut them. I don't like to use the canned letters because I don't think they have the "custom" feel I'm looking for. I have all the stamps but I don't use them.
