Help with a custom sign
Can someone point me in the direction or can anyone on the forum replicate this sign:



If so please let me know and tell me how much?

IIRC grumpybiker did a custom sign, I think vthoky did one too?

Not sure if they do any other than for themselves though.

I do have a laser engraver that would do that.

GarandGuy, do you have that font? Are. you tied to that one specifically, or can we look for one similar?

How big is the sign altogether?

This looks like a fun project! Feel free to email me… let’s see what we can do with it.

That font (the top one) is actually called "Party Business Font".

I know a signmaker in Kilmarnock that may be able to duplicate that,

There's about a thousand people on Etsy that can make that sign for you.

Lower font is probably Ringbearer Medium.

The sign in the OP is nice. You can download the free Party Business font the OP's sign used for the first two lines here: link to Fontspace download - Party Business

I just took a screenshot from the sign on Bilbo's gate from LOTR-The Fellowship of the Ring, in 4K:

If one is a purist, differences can be seen in the typefaces between the one used for the first couple lines of the sign in the OP and Bilbo's gate.

That said, to anyone who is not, like me, both:
a) crazy about the LOTR/Hobbit movies and,
b) a font nerd (I have just under 6K fonts at the moment)

the distinctions won't really matter.

The Party Business font has the capability to have the diacrits over the vowels (a, o, u) as seen on Bilbo's gate [I don't know why they weren't used in the sign in the OP, but if your signmaker uses that font, let them know those are mapped into the capital A, O and U] and honestly, with those diacrits in, 99+% of people wouldn't notice the little stylistic differences elsewhere in the character designs.
