Important safety notice

Settings are starting points — always run a test cut on scrap before your final piece. Follow your manufacturer's guidance, wear eye protection, and ensure proper ventilation.

For this project, I focused on keeping the Ford F100 instantly recognizable while avoiding fragile or overly detailed sections. The car silhouette and script lettering are connected into one continuous piece, with simplified windows, body accents, and wheel openings that make the cut more reliable. The result is a sturdy automotive wall sign with a strong horizontal profile and clean presentation, and the same approach can be adapted for other muscle cars, trucks and custom vehicle designs.
