Default Hello from Harrison AR

My name is Floyd Cox, I live in Harrison Arkansas, I ran across your site by doing a search for free hand sign making. I work at the local hospital here in Harrison in maintenance.
As mentioned before I really am interested in learning to route signs,
I just ordered (MAKING WOOD SIGNS By Patrick and Sherri Spielman) & a
el-cheapo 6 set bit set for signs, just to get a feel of the ones that I think I will use the most.
My equipment for routing is a router table I made from different pieces here and there, and a couple of other routers.

Welcome to the forum Floyd, there are several top notch sign makers who are members and a bit of time searching the forum will find their work. You can view my single effort by clicking on this link.

It's a great add on item for the router to make free hand signs, plus it comes with a great light setup

Welcome, Floyd! Glad to have a razorback join the forum. My son lived in Harrison for a while, but now lives outside Texarkana on our family farm. Don't be a stranger.

Welcome to the forums, glad to have you here! I believe that is the updated version of Pat's book he did some time ago. Great book. Pat was a router great and passed on a year or two ago.
