Because of the work we have done for a number of other local fire stations, BETC#1 chose us to design and build a sign for the new fire station before their 100 Anniversary Celebration this coming July 4. Brookside is a proud historic district within Menham Township NJ that is listed on both the state and national register of historic places. They were looking for a dimensional sign that would complement the charm of this historic community. Using modern and traditional methods we created this handsome carved sign that features raised 23K gold leaf prismatic letters against a traditional black smalts (crushed glass) background, the center featuring a traditional Maltese Cross with a hammered finish and a palladium gold 1. With the help of Ladder Truck 43 on loan from Randolph Fire Dept., we got the job done. Thanks to everyone that was on hand to help out, operate the equipment and coordinate. The volunteers are a great bunch of guys! If you would like to help them usher in another 100yrs, visit the station's website at bec1.org
Our Very First Museum Sign
It gave us great pride to produce this sign for the Museum of Early Trades and Crafts in Madison NJ. (METC.org). It is a fascinating space build in 1900 as a Free Library. It became the METC in 1969 with perminant exhibits of the everyday tools used by craftsmen in New Jersey for the past 250 years. We took great care to reproduce the texture of the granite blockinto this beautiful hand carved sign.
Say Hello to Our New State of the Art Multicam 3000 Router
Our new router is stronger and faster with new technology making our work even more precise and intricate. We look forward to pushing the envelope with this machine to bring you even more amazing and detailed handcrafted dimensional signs.
Today We said Goodbye to an Old Freind.
Our 2006 Multicam 3000 Router left the shop today to make room for a shiny new one. We had lots of fun carving custom business signs with this American made workhorse but it was time to bring in some state of the art equipment to make even better dimensional signs for our customers.
