Very nice work, Dan! Did you draw that or is it a prepared file? How long did it take to cut?

Thanks, Dan. I just realized you put that into the first post but I missed it - my bad!

So $50/hr plus finishing and this is a $950 sign - I like it! :wink:

The first flag is out being painted. I started the finish cut on a second identical flag today. I plan to stain the second flag. Pics to follow.

Looks like you got really good detail in that carving. I noticed you have a smaller one to the left in the picture, did that one turnout as detailed?

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished projects.

The smaller flag is 300x145mm in size. I ran that one as a test piece. It came out quite nice with stain finish. I wanted to see what it looked like before i committed to the larger size and long machine time.

Dan that small one turned out nice too. That was well worth the time to do the bigger one.

I don't say this often. Okay, it might be my first time. I think I like the painted version better than the natural wood.

Now I have to go wash my mouth with soap or something. That felt so wrong.
