I have been doing Hemlock Farms Signs for a few years. Here are some pictures. I have many more to add.
To order a sign I like to work with email. Send me a email to Digitalwoodshop@aol.com with you Name and Local Address and Phone Number. You can call me too... 570-685-9663.
Include the requested text and I will put the text into a program that spits out a PDF File with many different Font Choices shown in YOUR Text. Since my Signs are Computer Cut I can cut any Font any size even do 2 lines of text. NO Limitations....
This sign included a New Post and I even sell the 911 Sign Brackets for the post. The 911 sign was on a metal post before and is now on top of the post.
I can also add Deer and Bear Carvings.
I send you this email back with prices. You pick a Font and I do the Artwork and send you Screen Shots to see the result for approval before I carve.
NO money up front. I install the sign and send you a PDF Invoice by eMail with a picture like the ESPN sign above and you send me a Check.
I DO charge 6% PA Sales Tax, I DO charge $25.00 for Delivery and Install, I pay about 30% of the Sign Price in Income Tax. I do it as a Business.
My prices are a little higher as I provide all this service up front and have the ability to Computer Carve the Sign. I also use a Hard Clear White Pine 1 x 6 board blank that I get a Gumbles. The Pine comes from New Zealand from the sticker and carves like Maple and is very stable. I Prime the board and paint 3 coats of Sherwin-Williams House paint in the Hemlock Standard of Lodge Brown and the Letters Gloss White. This makes for a Very Stable and Long Lasting Sign.
If you are interested in a Quality Sign check out the pictures here and look for the signs in Hemlock....
I raised my prices and my Friends at Chant are using another Sign Maker. Turns out that George at Chant at Hemlock was a Delaware Valley High School Classmate. :)
We have access to unlimited fonts and there is no limit on the number of letters or size.
You can look through your home computer at the Fonts and pick one you like or let us select the specifics and send you artwork proof emails.
We can also add art to the sign like Deer and Bears.
The art is not limited to just Deer and Bears; with access to many patterns and having a local source that is a digital pattern maker.
We look forward to meeting your sign needs.
Include your name, address ,phone number and Text requested.
Once we complete the Artwork in the Computer, we will send you a Screen Shot for your approval. This gives you the opportunity to make changes before the sign is cut.
Some signs require sending to the POA Office for Final Approval.
All Signs and Posts are primed and painted with the Hemlock Farms Standard Sherwin-Williams Quality 15 Year Paint
