This is a street sign done on Red Cedar of for a landmark address in the Pacific Northwest: Columbia Street, New Westminster, BC.

Using a beautiful example of live edge red cedar, we designed a retro style street plaque and engraved it about 1/2″ deep. The ironwork is also custom and for that we used 3/4″ flatbar and tapped hangers for display.

The sign is currently on display at the Urban Man Cave on Columbia Street in New Westminster across from the New Westminster Skytrain Station.

This sign is intended for interior decor even though it is fully capable of withstanding years of weather outdoors.

Red Cedar
Finished in natural tone and polyurethane.
Size approx: 48″ x 18″

Castle and Horse Shield

House of Paul

A new shield for the ‘House of Paul’.

This medieval style crest was created on spruce planks molded and sanded to size. The client uses a stallion image over a castle and their initials. Ideally suited for over a hearth or threshold to indicate the household.

Each plank was carved individually by our friends’ at Sawitall.net for custom signs and 3D cnc work, then we assembled, glued, and pressed the pieces together. Then the shield was cut out and reinforced with struts. After sanding and shaping, it’s finished in polyurethane and Prairie Bench Storybook. Approx size 32″ x 24″
