Nice! That looks like a LOT of fuckin' work right there. The letters, especially. Great job, Rob!

Amazing job, Robbie Robertson! That makes me want one too.

I did it all by hand with one of these:
![[Image: figuurzaagA.jpg]](http://opmaat-eduware.nl/uploadmap/zagen_gereedschap_vergelijken/figuurzaagA.jpg)
The size is about 50 x 50 cm. I'm gonna paint it white so it will stand out on my blue wall.
It's really not that much work. I printed a blown
up trefoil on paper and cut all the pieces out with a pair of scissors. Then used a pencil to outline all the pieces on the wood. And then saw everything with the jigsaw. Most work is sanding everything.

Looking good, Rob! If it's not that much work, I'm pretty sure you can make one for me too. Thanks mate!

I only used a machine to cut the two stripes because there is no way I can make such a long straight line with a handsaw. The sanding was what gave me a sore arm.
But here is the trick, the mdf is only 4 mm thick
So it's pretty easy to saw. Hardest part was the inside of the letters. I had to drill a hole first to get my saw in there.
You guys should try it, it's actually a lot of fun. Made me feel like I was 10 years old
