Making custom wooden signs has always been a great deal of fun for me. I've made them with many different tools and materials. This video shows the most efficient way to make high quality signs for small business sales or gifts to friends and family as a hobbyist. I show the steps and tips for making 3D layered signs as well as ideas for designs, materials, and all the possibilities.

Additionally, I showcase the xTool P2, a 55Watt CO2 Laser and show how this unit or the other laser machines can transform your projects and exponentially increase efficiency. Even with zero woodworking or laser experience, you can be up and running in no time. Bottom line, this machine is incredible and can help your small business or side hustle explode with productivity and profit. It's pretty awesome for hobbyist projects too.
