The Big Sandy

Post by JMB »

I have add my latest attempt at pipe making to my site. I call it the Big Sandy, not because of all the sanding required but for the number of sand pit's in it Has more sand pit's that the Highway Dept. does.. I will sand it back down and try my hand at wood burning to try and cover up some of them.

Do you mean that your going to fit the frame of your logo in a shape that would burn "around" your logo. In other words it would have a "trench" of burnt wood around the logo and the logo itself would be raised? That's a cool idea...

I think I've got my solution.

If you're interested, I'll be happy to work on ideas or the tool. I'm a relatively accomplished graphic-artist (old-school non-computer type) and have done alot of logo/stylizing work in the past. I'll post some examples.
