I want to make sayings on pieces of wood. Some would be small and some would be 7 feet tall. What product would I use?

This stencil vinyl is clear, and good for making a stencil to paint sayings onto wood. However, the type of paint or finish of the wood is important, as it is hard to stick the vinyl to certain types of finishes when stenciling. Modge podge is good to cover the wood/ surface for stenciling on top of. However, if you just wanted a colored vinyl to transfer to the wood, indoor/outdoor vinyl works best In any color. If you use silhouette vinyl, use the permanent kind, as the removable kind peels up easily when you remove transfer paper, without a shiny surface underneath ( hence, the usefulness of a layer of modge podge underneath. )

Robert, What are you making? I do intarsia projects with 3/4 inch wood of various types, some hard woods and some softer. I usually use a #5 or #7. Red oak is fairly soft so depending on the detail in your project. a #5 should work good for you. Kathy

find something close in size and cut and super glue it to the size you want like I did works great.

I bought one of these to do that exact thing. However for me it was to small for a coffee table, however I did turn it into an end table. I had a piece of glass cut for the top, turned out nice with my western décor.

Well they're only about 3 inches in diameter so the label can't be to big. I use a small label from my Brother label making machine.

Works great for wood, you can also do engraving with the very fine pointed ones.

yes,you can use the Sharpie pen to do this (not the ones with a felt-like tip, unless you want to), and it's a big piece of wood. These are available in push button fine point model which would certainly work, if (and here's the big if) everyone has a small size signature, or, it's a small wedding. Either of these pens would work providing the wood is unfinished, and no one tries to correct their writing, as these are both very permanent

You can make them as TALL as you want them to be , or as short as you want them to be,(within reason), you have to make the legs the length you want so you get the height you want. The same thing goes for the Width that you want. It all depends on what you are going to use the sawhorses to hold up and for how long. These are some of the best sawhorse brackets that I have seen,they are as strong as I need for almost anything I do as a home project. I have more than one set and they are of different sizes (each set is a different size ).

Should work fine, I never though about raping wood. You will need to use heat, to get around complex shapes. You may need to us glue, if the wood is unfinished.

Hello,I use regular wood or charcoal. I'm sure you can use just about anything.

Depending on what your items are, you could reposition the light as C. Kotz has suggested, or use one of the clear or white angled display boards to hold your piece. If your item is light weight you could use a rig with clear fishing line to hold you work up. This could then be edited out using a graphics program. I have some ornaments I took photos of and use an ornament hanger and then edited out the cord used to hang them.

I use the short glue sticks recommended on Amazon and they are perfect. Love mine and use it inside and outdoors.

Check out Etsy. There are a lot of handmade boards out there with squares that can be custom sized to accommodate these larger pieces. I bought one from a seller named "naturalchess" and the board turned out beautiful.

I used them for glass but they would write for wood. Don't go to9 deep though.

It isn't real wood. I would check Pinterest for some techniques, I have painted this type of material before using a deglosser first.
