TEMPLATE GUIDE
BUSHING COLLAR

n Finish your sign quickly and easily by painting the entire
top surface of the finished sign with fast drying paint. (Using paint in aerosol cans is helpful.) Sand the top surface
of the sign leaving the paint in routed letters. The non-skid

n Vertical signs can be routed by turning the letter template
90˚ in the letter frame.
n Letters can be routed close to the edge of a sign by turning workpiece around. Turn letter templates around and
locate letters close to the far edge of the workpiece.

WARNING:
Some workpieces may not be securely held with the
non-skid mat. Always assure your workpiece is securely
held in place by the mat or clamps before beginning any
cutting operation.
