Hi
i want to make some letters from mdf for my baby nephews wall to spell out his name.
i plan to cut them out from 8x 4 sheet, 1/2" thick.
im pretty open to design, but will probably route the edges wit an ogee bit.
Would the best method be to print out a design and trace it to the mdf and then cut out the letters on my bandsaw.
The second part of my query is how to finish them.
ive seen recommendations on using zinsser bin primer but this is expensive here in ireland. will any solvent based paint be ok once the surface is sealed? for the routed edges i understand it is best to first seal with automotive filler?
Thanks
