Arkansas has pretty plates too!



The problem is no one I have found has Arkansas pride:(

Primo medium



The above two medium maps are my examples of getting the most out of your 10 plates. I call it the Primo.


 People ask what is the difference between $150 maps and $200 maps.  The lower picture is the run of the mill map, I have a lot of new plates and a lot of 1974 red plates, they are simply easier to get.  If you want more color, older, rusty, or special plates (machinery, mobile home or private bus) then consider the Primo.

Martin Endodontics- What I really do











I made a TX sized black one for my office. If you want to see what I really do (8-5) check out the website and the google maps virtual tour below.  I don't know how to do a hyperlink so just copy and paste the whole thing into your browser.

Other metals


Over New Years I started playing around with other metals and made my wife a sign for the house.  I also got my hands on some old corrugated metal.

Texas pride at it's core



So far these are the only school logo signs I have done (I still have a Tech one unsold as of 2/8/14).  I think the UT one is my favorite because there is no spray paint involved.  The odd year 1950's plates are the perfect color!
