See related blog post with more videos and photos at: https://cncroi.com/cedar-house-number... Jon from CNCROi.com demonstrates the process of creating a custom double-sided house number sign. This project starts with a cedar plank that initially had a warped edge, which needed to be fixed before proceeding. When working with wood, especially for precision tasks like laser engraving, it’s essential that the surface is flat. A warped piece of wood would result in uneven engraving, as the laser works from a fixed focal distance. If the wood is not level, certain areas of the engraving would be deeper or less detailed, leading to inconsistent results. To address this, Jon used a planer to flatten the cedar plank and ensure that the engraving would be precise across the entire board. Once the cedar was properly flattened, Jon moved on to the laser engraving. Although the laser could technically cut out the shape and lettering directly, Jon opted to use his bandsaw to cut out the outline first. This approach ensures that the engraved design on both sides would align correctly, as the laser engraving itself could sometimes shift slightly when working with larger pieces of wood. The bandsaw provides a more accurate guide, ensuring that the letters and numbers are positioned correctly on both sides of the sign. While small deviations may occur when switching between the laser and bandsaw, the final result would not be noticeable from a distance, making the sign perfectly suitable for its intended purpose. After completing the laser engraving and bandsaw work, Jon moved on to sanding the edges and surfaces of the cedar sign. Sanding smooths out any rough areas and prepares the surface for varnishing, which is the final step in finishing the house number sign. Sanding also helps ensure that the varnish will adhere evenly, creating a professional and polished look. The natural preservative properties of cedar make it an excellent choice for outdoor signs, as it is resistant to decay and weathering. Additionally, the laser engraving on cedar produces charcoal markings, which are permanent and will not peel or flake off over time, even in extreme weather conditions. The final product is a custom-made house number sign with precise laser engraving, made from high-quality cedar that is both durable and visually appealing. Cedar’s natural beauty and resistance to the elements, combined with the precision of CNC technology, result in a sign that will stand the test of time.
