Just got permission to post this.
Not my design, had to take measurements from a smaller sign and input into Aspire. Then cut the final sign out at 36" in diameter. Photos show sign in progress and final product.
Two new Aspire features helped make this easier. First, I used the Auto-Inlay feature for the central part of the sign. This inlay was approx. 12" x 15" and I decided to use an inlay because it sits proud of the surface and is painted a different color. The second feature was two tool pocketing. I used this for the text and inner and outer "tick" marks. This feature alone probably saved me 1-2 hours of machine time.
Goes without saying that painting it was the most tedious part of the job. But in the end it came out great and I think it may result in some more work coming my way.

Re: First sign using V2
Tim, that really looks great. I like it a lot. Its interesting and eye catching, but the graphics don't overpower or distract from the central message. A perfect sign. Nice one!
