2x10 floor joist.

I didn't feel like doing any "actual work" when I got in the shop this morning so I thought it'd do a little shop cleaning. I ran across some scrap 2x10 from my dining room floor renovation and instead of cleaning, I figured I'd try some really deep stacked text.
Nothing amazing but not bad for a piece of floor joist. 🙂

Yet another project to prove that the word “scrap” should never be applied to wood. I prefer to refer to those pieces as “leftovers”.
Joe that turned out great. I do like the way you removed most of the stain from the "41-10 KJV" and a little less form the wording of the scripture.

It was worth playing with the cutoff.

Thanks, most of the text on text signs have a medium background, a dark background word "Isaiah" and a light foreground word.
I tried to lighten the background using a rag but the stain had already soaked in so my only option was to sand around the verse.
Next time I may try sanding sealer or ??? over the whole thing before staining so I can wipe the background and leave the background word darker.
We'll see what happens.
Maybe I should just cut them and send them out to Scott and John for painting! 😉
Will look up the verse. Surprising what you find in the scrap pile.

That one was a big help when I realized my dining room floor and joists had rotted and was about to fall in.
Just noticed the fine, real fine for me, print. I could get several sermons out of that.
