ISA show in Las Vegas a success!
I spent three long days in the MultiCam booth at the ISA sign show in Las Vegas. Over the course of three days I talked to hundreds of folks and showed the cool things we do with our MultiCam, EnRoute Software and Precision Board. I built some files and we kept the MultiCan busy turning out little pieces.

For our last sample I wanted to create something a little different. I first did a quick google search for ‘Japanese symbols’ The symbol for ‘Friendship’ was nice and simple and perfectly suitable for our sample. I then did a vector trace by hand.

The ‘S’ letter sample is one I’ve done before.

The Sign Magic Workshop is now just over two weeks away.
Building a train – part 16
I posted pictures and a small writeup of the log car that would accompany the steam locomotive on the Whistle Punk Hollow Adventure Golf project. That article covered creating and routing the face of the log which would act as a giant sign. Around that we welded up a framework of quarter inch thick steel bar, then attached expanded lath to that framework.
Assembling the pieces
As I sorted and transferred my old files to a new computer this past week I put all of the router files I had created for the new house in one place. I was surprised to see that there were more than 200 files so far
Going to ISA!
Next week is the International Sign Association show in Las Vegas. It is the largest sign show in the world with more than 20,000 attendees. I’ll be there once more at the MultiCam booth.
