Does anyone know of a supplier of pre-finished wood sign blanks? I'll be needing some 24"x5" (or so) ones. I have the right tools (no CNC though) to fabricate and finish them myself, but I'm thinking it would be cheaper (time wise) to find a supplier.

Thanks!

do you want a routered edge? what kind of material does the wood need to be and how thick? factor in shipping weight.... how many do you need? i make signs in my wood shop but you didn't give much info to be helpful.....

I will be needing 12 oval blanks, maybe of something like poplar with rounded edges. Thickness 1/2" with a light color (like maple would be) finish on both sides. I'm thinking poplar since they will be hanging freely with and don't want a heavy wood. Any choice suggestions would be appreciated.

Ed,

You left out the size of the ovals, major and minor dimentions.

11 rectangular pieces - 24x5, 1/2" poplar stock, rounded edges, corners. Light colored (like a maple look) finish on both sides and edges.

2 pieces - 24x12, same as above.
