Cedar Signs: How are they made?

All of our cedar signs are designed, constructed, carved, routed, and painted by talented Schmeeckle staff. Every sign is a unique masterpiece. We personalize your sign with words and pictures provided by you, or you can tell us what you're envisioning and we'll find the perfect picture to match. We then give you a free design layout and cost estimate.  

If you choose to purchase a cedar sign, the fabrication process is started. We cut, plane, and join together 2-inch or 4-inch thick Western red cedar boards, depending on the size. Metal rods are drilled through large signs to ensure a tight fit. Your layout is then traced onto the wood.

Cedar signs can be designed in nearly any shape, size, or carving.  Just contact us, and we will be happy to discuss any options with you.
