Once the routing was done I glued and clamped all of the layers together using PB Bond 240 glue from Coastal Enterprises. It tends to squeeze out a little on the edges of the seams but that was no problem. I like to use an air powered die grinder to take off the glue and add a little random texture while I'm at it. I also roughed up the faces just a little around the letters. I wanted this sign to look like it has been there a while and has a little character.
Once the cleanup was done it was time for a little welding. I bent up some 5/8" steel rod for the pedals and dug up a pulley from the parts bin. Some pencil rod was bent and welded to form the armature for the bear sculpture.
The sign is now ready for some fun sculpting. Stay tuned...
