    My new sign, you want one?

    A guy at my work makes these signs made to look old. He has done a few at work just playing around and I thought they were sweet. I asked to have him make me one for my shop with a name I had picked out years ago, it just so happened to fit the sign to a t. If you guys are interested, he said he would be up for me posting it here and seeing if anyone was interested. He wants to make more, but needs more places and people to make them for. Mine is about 2 feet tall and 4 feet wide and it cost me about 100. It is about as big as he has made but size is majority proportional to the price. Let me know what you think and if you are interested in one. Just thought I would post up because I thought it was awesome.Click image for larger version

    Btw, it doesn't have to be a shop. I am having him make one for my wife's uncle for Christmas for his house that has the family name and address on it.

Plus they never wear out.

    I disagree.

    I think it's pretty damn neat.
    I think it's somewhat expensive.
    I think I won't be getting one.

          I agree, my guess is pay anyone here $100 you are going to get much less, including Tim. I could see that sign taking at least a couple of hours to make, $25-50 an hour for custom work? Seems pretty cheap.

            Only on TCS would anyone think that's expensive.

                especially considering the size, seems like a good deal to me.

                    Well considering some people on this board, this is not a shock

                          For that type of thing, it's probably reasonable, I think. While neat, I don't have much desire to hand over $100 for a sign

                            I like it and I want one. The problem is I don't know what I would put on it.
