I have someone who wants me to make a sign I plan to do a simple V carved sign I have some old I believe doug fir 2" x 12" rough cut material that is from a 100 year old barn. How do you think this will V carve? I plan to paint the carved area black what could I spray on the wood to seal it before carving to make painting the carved area easier so it does not bleed the paint into the non carved area?
I don't usually do signs in fact this would be the first paying sign job. If the old wood I have is not suitable I will do something else. The sign is not super detailed and I am still working with the person on the design.
Thanks Mike
