The Lords Prayer

[myxpykalix]

Does anyone have this (the words) in a dxf or script for a plaque?

why would you want it in that format? it is hard to change the spacing and such. much better to add it as text then you can work with it.
after doing the lords prayer in Romanian it was far easier to edit and change the lines and such in text. here is the text

hi steve, i had googled and got the words already however i had seen some others here who had made plaques in a handwriting type font and wanted to find out where they got it or how they made it. I'm trying to fit this on a protruding facial bust plaque of jesus i'm modeling.

sounds like you need to hunt for the font. it would make your life far easier.
working with text in dxf would drive you nuts.
now here is the lords prayer

Steve- you may be right re:text in dxf. Too bad i can't read romanian(?) but i can pretty much figure out what it says..lol.
That is a very clen nice looking plaque you made.
Tell me what your material was and how you got such clean lettering?

[knight_toolworks]

it is mdf that's why. it vcarves really well. you can crank up the speed too.
I had to spend time to make the lines fit and get the spacing right. that's far easier as text.

Steve, is that painted MDF, or 'whiteboard' (the thin MDF with white plastic on one side)? Thanks! Stan

[knight_toolworks]

just mdf. I know the guy who painted it used a glaze. but I don't know all of what he did.
