Here's a batch of small letters (2 inches) I've done today. They're part of an complete sign kit I've been ask to do.
The special part about 'em is that they have a roundover edge made with a small diameter Point roundover bit. The point allow the bit to reach into tight corners which create a very nice looking letter. This kind of bit shape come in a few roundover radius (1/4-3/8-1/2" CED) which is unfortunate because I could use more possibilities (1/8" and larger than 1/2").
Magnate point roundover bit
Many of my sign maker customers really like the effect that bit shape make and the very affordable price I can make them compared to 3D carved letters. It's only a matter of profiling the edge at the proper depth and that's it.
