Sign I made for brother for Christmas. The center section is the outline of the sandpoint were he has a vacation home. The star marking the location of his place. Made from 16g Stainless. Then used a palm sander down to 3000 grit sandpaper. If I had to do it over again I’d switch the Sand Point with the Est. 2015

Had to look that up!
It was time consuming to hand trace that in cad.

Made these dire wolf profiles for a local blacksmith.
It is about as small as I can cut details wise in 1/8 currently.

Pretty clean cuts! Good job!
Nice that you have a relationship with a Blacksmith. That should reap all kinds of interesting projects.

Craig, here is the DXF for the gooseneck. It will require a riser on the end posts if using a Swag finger brake press since I made these longer than theirs. I’ve cut 20 of these and welding them in groups of 4, 8 and 8. I think the better method might be to add through bolt holes in the file and squeeze them together with an all thread. I have cut these out of 1/4" plate. I have no easy way of handling thicker stock.

Thanks John, I’ll give it a try.
Here’s a follow-up the blacksmith did his thing and this is what it looks like now.
I’m not sure what it’s attached to still hopefully he’ll give me a picture of the entire piece
This is his web page.

Nice. My PM10-54 will hopefully ship next week. Cant wait to get it.
How do you like it so far. Have you got to use it much?
cool! …fire poker maybe?
The mill?.. Yeah, love it! Use it every week
But your 1054 is going to be like a Stretched Limo 
Super cool! I actually have a project I’m doing that’s actually the front view of a Factory 5 Cobra and to add in the detail I wanted to burn lines in like you did on Poo. That’s a great technique! I’m still struggling in Fusion. I got quite a bit done and it’s laying out great… just have a handful of I’m sure simple things I’m not doing yet.
This will be my first burn (full project) on my CF Pro once i get it figured out.
I seen those lines on Poo and had to comment! Cause I know that’s one of those areas I’m still stumped on how to do in Fusion. Lol
I feel compelled to point out that it’s ‘Pooh’, not ‘Poo’. Anyone who has raised children will understand the difference 
(not to mention the cringe factor)

Oh no! This is very useful information! I’ll be sure to pass it on to my 3 year old granddaughter! I’ll mention your name. Thanks!
BTW, she is one of the reasons I know the difference between the two… 
Sounds like you’ve played everyone’s favorite game, chocolate or poo!
OMG !!! LOL 
!!! I have a 7 year old and I don’t believe we have read them books… but I should know better!!! Lol!!!
I learned a long time ago that my only purpose on this earth is for others amusement. This a prim example!
