WELCOME!


It is hard to believe that it was only seven years ago I witnessed a CNC router in action for the very first time. I was fascinated and simply had to have one! Although I had been in the creative end of the three dimensional sign business for most of my life I didn't really know what I would do with one - but I just knew it could do fantastic stuff.

Through extensive research I quickly found out that with the relative simplicity of EnRoute, CNC routers were capable of just about anything imaginable. This journal will chronicle that journey to date and continue each week with two or three entries as we continue to explore just what is possible with this wonderful software... -dan

More awards

We are pleased that two of our last year's projects have been honoured in the Signs of the Times annual international sign competition. Each year they receive many hundreds of entries which compete in various categories.

The Institute for the Study of Mechanical Marine life piece (documented here on the blog and completed last September) won first place in the Unusual Signs category. This sign was designed using EnRoute software. It was machined on our MutliCam 3000 router from 30 lb Precision Board HDU. All finishes were hand brushed acrylic.





The WhistlePunk Hollow Adventure Golf project also garnered a second place finish in the same competition in the SIGN SYSTEM Category. This project was also documented extensively on this blog and was completed last July.

These signs and features were designed using EnRoute software. They were machined on our MutliCam 3000 router from 30 lb Precision Board HDU. All finishes were hand brushed acrylic.
