Greetings from the roof of Costco..slogging through another day at the fiat mines, swapping out some HVAC components for our first job of the morning. What prompted me to snap a photo here is not the precariously tight clearance of the crane boom to the parapet wall (within a few inches) but rather the two exhaust hoods you see in the foreground...the most intense combination of every single smell from the bakery all right up in your face. Damn I'm hungry #grownostr #construction #skilledtrades #bluecollarnostr

Fini. Machined the excess material from the sides to make it into a circle. Added a low profile aluminium cleat to the backside for easy installation, and threw in a few extras with the logo...this was equal parts fun and frustrating, definitely learned some lessons and took notes to streamline the process next time.. #grownostr #srfab #fabrication #cnc #customsigns #signs image

Phew...More progress on the aluminum sign, this part truly tested my patience....with such a large area to fill and how quickly the epoxy sets up, it's a matter of moving fast but not too fast. Too much and it breaks the plane of the relief, "spilling" over (tedious cleanup with acetone and q-tips) #grownostr #srfab #fabrication #cnc #signs #customsigns

This was a first for me, CNC machined a client's logo onto anodized aluminium blank and then fill in the letters with a cokored epoxy...more progress pics to follow, or see the results of completed project at #grownostr #srfab #fabrication #cnc #signs #customsigns image
