I took a few minutes today to splash on the final glaze and carefully wipe down the IBEX dino. I created the little showpiece using the 3D IBEX Routing software. It will be showcased at the International Sign Association EXPO at the end of March next year. There’s still plenty of time to finish the piece, but I wanted to get it more finished today (except the base). The reason is that a great longtime friend is visiting, and he helped write the program with his brilliant brother and son. This week we will spend some time together learning how to use it better. I know from experience that Jeff will also be listening to us and will encourage Peter and me to suggest improvements and additions to make it even better. It is a winning partnership.
Base colour on
My Dancing Dino entry for the Sign Invitational now has the base coats of paint on. It is ready for the bright colours I plan for the prancing T-rex with his accordion. Stay tuned…
Specialty Machinery display piece done
The display dino for Specialty Machinery, one of the main sponsors for the Sign Invitational, is now finished and ready to ship. The two matching sides were routed from 30 lb Precision Board and then laminated over a welded steel armature.
