Making A Sign October 13, 2018 Troy Musto One of the first steps is cutting a fish out from a piece of wood. For this sign, we were using 3/4” solid Pine. Wood widths can vary depending on the project. If you have a specific piece of wood in mind for a sign we can usually use it. Here are some hooks I had to customize for a particularly odd fitting. Here’s one of the earlier whimsical fish signs in progress. This is a mockup to see what the signs would look like with the house number hanging from the bottom instead of being right on the fish. Here’s a mockup for measurements, placements and sign sizes.
