Friends have designed and built their own CNC machine (computerized 3D carving). At PrairieBench.com, we had the opportunity to pass along some new designs to our patrons.

We’ve run coasters, throne backboards, shields, address signs, wall hangings and interior decor. Now we can design complex carving paths and produce art and functional wood creations.

We live outdoors, but some brothers like the cave life. It’s a good idea to mark their territory with a warning. With our friends at Sawitall.net, we did a couple test runs with a rustic man cave sign.

One is a wild west font and the other looked good with a rough edge and some bolts.

This is a street sign done on Red Cedar of for a landmark address in the Pacific Northwest: Columbia Street, New Westminster, BC.

Using a beautiful example of live edge red cedar, we designed a retro style street plaque and engraved it about 1/2″ deep. The ironwork is also custom and for that we used 3/4″ flatbar and tapped hangers for display.

The sign is currently on display at the Urban Man Cave on Columbia Street in New Westminster across from the New Westminster Skytrain Station.

This sign is intended for interior decor even though it is fully capable of withstanding years of weather outdoors.

Red Cedar
Finished in natural tone and polyurethane.
Size approx: 48″ x 18″
