Mark, I actually "get" this kind of thing pretty quickly, but am being cautious to take things step-by-step. In addition to adding some complexity, I'm also observing and listening so I begin to get a feel for when things are cutting efficiently, too. Today's exercise, after entertaining yet another medical professional, was to do like Keith mentioned...a raised letter scenario and I chose to use that exercise to also prototype my "logo sign". I cut it multiple times with different material, too. Overall, I'm pleased with how this worked out and will paint it up to see how it will look when I cut it out of material more appropriate for a small building sign.
