“Sign, sign, everywhere a sign 
Blockin’ out the scenery, breakin’ my mind 
Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?
– Five Man Electrical Band, Signs – Wiki

Longest Lasting
& Sustainable
Western Red Cedar signs with painted DEEP carved out letters are recommended for outdoors due to their extreme long life out in the weather here in Australia.

FARM SIGNS & OUTDOOR PLAQUES

Important notes about my wooden signs and engraved plaques.

• These sign letters and engraved pictures are DEEP carved CNC routered lettering, painted matt black enamel for long life outdoors.
• Easy to read from a distance & much better than shallow laser engraved lettering which are so common these days.
  Although I can use a laser engraver for finer details and small plaques.
• I also make House Signs and House Numbers
• Family name signs and Bar Signs with personalised pictures

Order from me today and you won’t be disappointed!

Specialising in Rustic timber signs, (just select the rustic option when ordering). Colour variation in photos is due to natural timber variation & also the angle of the sun in my backyard where the photo was taken. NZ Pine & Victorian Ash is a bit lighter in colour. Cedar is best for outdoors. All my outdoor signs have tinted decking oil for added UV protection.

• Rustic timber signs, some are scorched with flame across the surface and around the edges.
  Just select the scorched option on the form when ordering.

Sign FAQ’s

• How long do they take to make?

  A very common question!
  It depends on how many are on the list first and how many I am posting out each week at the time of ordering.
• There is currently a waiting list for my custom wooden signs,
  I am involved in other projects which can sometimes keep me very busy.
  
• “But my order is urgent“!
  This work is custom-made to order and takes time to craft to a high standard. If other customers are on the job list before you, who have already paid, then it’s unfair to make them wait too much longer.
  For example – Please don’t waste time asking for sign examples and various font changes then tell me you need it in WA by this weekend for your brother’s 21st.
  
• Can you get it to me sooner?
  Let me know what date you need it and the State to be delivered to.
  I can sometimes juggle things around and move your job up the list!
• You must let me know the required date and the State you are in when ordering.
  
• How much do your signs cost?
  They are custom-made to order, and all signs are different.
  Sign Price Guide << please be aware they aren’t cheap, especially if you want extras, difficult pictures that require editing or a large property sign.
• My custom-made Cedar signs usually cost between $260-$340 depending on size and details such as engraved pictures multiple lines of text, different colours etc.
  
• What size wooden signs do you make?

Please see the price-size guide  If you can’t wait for a custom made sign you may find something available to Buy Now on my shop pages for Signs or Boxes.
Or browse my handmade items in the new Sustainable wooden gift SHOP

• Do you supply screws or chain and links for hanging the sign?

No, we don’t supply hardware, but we can supply Screw Eyes if requested on the form.
For all hardware items please visit your local hardware store as there are many different options depending on where and how it is being hung.

SCREW EYES

• What are Screw Eyes?
  They screw into the top edge for hanging your sign. (I fit them for you ready to hang)

My sign lettering is made with a V-carve cut (CNC ROUTED) and then painted as well.

Deep ‘V’ Cut – Carved out timber then it’s painted. I shape the edges by hand.

• Rural Country Western style signs with unique rural/country fonts!
• Holiday House signs
• Family names engraved for farm gates and estates
• Garden signs – For those who love country style living and all things beautifully rustic!
• Horse name plaques for stables and paddocks

Hi Andrew.
We received our timber sign this week. We are extremely happy with it.
Thank you
Regards Kim – 17th April 2016

Lyn McLernon

Hello Andrew,
The Dunwurkin sign arrived a half hour ago – I am absolutely thrilled with it – and have previewed it outside with the Sanctuary sign you crafted for me. Have attached updated photos.
I’m going to have to make myself wait until 5 Aug when hubby retires before it gets put back up. Best wishes and continued success
Regards Lyn McLernon – 30th May 2016

Samantha Cole

Hi Andrew,
I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with the sign you have made. It is better than what I had expected. Your skill and attention to detail as resulted in a beautiful birthday gift that I can now give to someone close to me.
Please let me know if there is a way that I can provide positive feedback via your website for other potential customers to view. Thank you. Kind regards, Sam – 22 June 2016

Mrs M.

(asked to be anonymous)
Andrew was a caring and thoughtful professional from start to finish. He intuitively understood what I was looking for and sensitively made some suggestions around design of signs for a special space for my husband. He responded to any queries promptly and went out of his way to investigate different options for us. Andrew was enthusiastic about the project. I was also very reassured by his ethical approach to business.
