Need some help please
I will have my 50th. wedding anniversary in just a couple of weeks
and I would like to make something nice for my wife.
Yes, she's put up with me and my BS for over 50 years.
I'm kind of thinking about a nice plaque or something.
Here's the problem, I'm kind of a dumb ass when it comes to ideas.
Any help is appreciated.

Re: Need some help please
The Be Mine project on Design & Make is a good starting point. Add a bit of text for the 50th Anniversary and your are most of the way there.

Corian makes really nice plaques. You can buy stands like this at most hobby stores.

Here's an idea that was a quick model using Aspire's clipart which depicts a frame of our 50th. We will be celebrating our 53rd in June. By the way, I had a lot more hair back in those days then I have now.

Jan,
Consider making her something personal that she might use daily. A small jewelry box comes to mind. Engrave it on the inside.

I made this family crest that celebrates both of our families for an anniversary gift a few years ago. The crest has elements of Italian and Irish symbolism. It hangs an a wall in our dining room. It is a very special remembrance of our marriage and heritage.

Re: Need some help please
I appreciate everyone's input.
This is what I came up with.
A nice piece of Walnut.
I'm kinda leaning towards the one with the rope border.
What do you think?
