Building
the Sign
• Cut the 1” x 10” pine to 36” lengths.
• Rip the pine into 11/2” to 71/2” widths, keeping the final sign size about 22” wide
including gaps.
• Arrange the cut boards on a flat surface, slightly staggering the widths and lengths.
Cut three 11/2” braces to secure the boards in the middle and 2” from the top and the
bottom across the back.
