Nice camp sign. Have you found a place to hang it? Who made it for you?

Hi Crunchman.

Made it myself.
Took about an hour to make and 6 days to stain and seal. LOL
Will be hung from either a tree or a stand I have.

Carlosrod,
Nice job on that sign, I like the color for shading. Well done!

So did you sell the pop up? The 23IKSS is a nice RV.

Cgotto

Yes, used a Small router. Wood is Poplar and not pine. Stained and 5 coats of poly.

Vin

Yes. Sold the pop up since the DW fell in love with IKSS.
It's a great unit and very happy with it.

Good memory. Good to hear from you again.

Carlosrod.

I found myself very close to buying the 23IKISS also. I got a little bit scared when I looked up at how big it was. I was not convinced I would feel confident towing it with what I intend to own for TV's. I like a mid size SUV for a personal auto and felt the pop up was a better match for what we own and will continue to own.

You have a great unit. Everything about it is a winner. I am sure FR is selling loads of them.

Enjoy my friend.

Vin.

Love the sign. All I've used my router for is trimming laminate when I re-did my home kitchen countertops. Did you use stencils or freehand?

I happen to do it freehand only because I've done it before, but you can easily use a stencil.
Here's a tip. Print any font you want from a printer.
Use either letter or legal size paper, depending on size.
Print it landscape mode.
Then trace the font onto the wood and router it.
If you've used a router before, you can make it.
Perhaps even better than mine.
Go for it.

It was because of 'Her' we were able to get the Silverback 33IK. So "Her Majesty's Camper".
