WELCOME!


It is hard to believe that it was almost ten years ago I witnessed a CNC router in action for the very first time. I was fascinated with what I saw and simply had to have one! Although I had been in the creative end of the three dimensional sign business for most of my life I didn't really know what I would do with one - but I just knew it could do fantastic stuff.

Through extensive research and LOTS of hands-on practice I quickly found out that my MultiCam router was capable of just about anything imaginable.This journal will chronicle that journey to date and continue each week with two or three entries as I continue to explore just what is possible with this wonderful tool... -dan

2018 Sign Invitational

With this year's Sign Invitational now behind us our thoughts are already turning to next year's event. It will be hosted once again in MultiCam's booth at the ISA EXPO in Las Vegas. The dates for the show are March 22-24, 2018. This means all who wish to enter have only eleven months to go. If you wish to enter please contact me at dan@imaginationcorporation.com or jdawson@synergysign.com

The theme for next year is 'MARVELOUS MACHINE' which allows for LOTS of creativity. The build envelope is 2' wide by 2' deep by six feet tall. You are allowed to put your name on the entry if you wish but no other company's identification.

I of course got right to work while we were still at the show. Each year the pieces get a little more elaborate so it is critical that I pulled out all of the stops. Much of my piece is still under wraps or not yet figured out but the general idea is pretty solid...  Being a most marvellous machine, it will need to run of course. And without a doubt I have a few more surprises up my sleeve of course. This is going to be one of the most challenging and fun pieces I have tackled. Stay tuned for ongoing progress developments...
