One of my retired Marine friends does wood working as a side business, he sent me this as a gift.

[miljeep]

that is pretty cool. I think you owe your friend a :beer:

[trailsnail]

That is nice. Did he burn the edges or paint/stain them black?

[theyeti1775]

Here is his Website: http://vetsigns.net
His name is Bill and he goes by 'Velcro' (funny story for that one).
You can let him know Yeti sent you.

The 'burning is all painted.
Here other works of his I own:

That is really some nice work.

That is really some nice work.

Yes he does. That why I always recommend him for people looking for going away plaques and what not. He'll hand draw a design for you and see if you like it first.

The "Deadman's Gulch" one, I had only planned on one that would be a sign post at the top of the Gulch. He sent me back that design and we went with what is now hung in Bob's Garage above the workbench.

Of course the Semper Fi rose is mine.

Oh, Semper Fi, aren't we special. It just saddens me that the army can't stick with any one thing.
