Cap-it Trucks - Part 1

These two signs stand at the entrance to the store, both to welcome customers and to hold their catalogues. Appropriately, they both feature four wheel drive trucks.

Once the design was complete the first step was creating the wheels. The files for the wheels built in EnRoute and were routed from inch and a half 30 lb. Precision Board HDU.

Above you can see the tires’ basic vector shapes. We used these vectors and EnRoute’s jigsaw tool to cut out the holes in the wheels. Then, we added the wheel centre caps and lug nuts.

The sidewalls were created with a simple dome relief.

The sidewall lugs on the tires were flat reliefs modified with inner and outer circle vectors.

We built up the various wheel components and added the sidewall letters. These featuring our customer's brand, of course. The back of the wheel center shows the back of the brake assembly.

Once the file was complete, we sent it to the CNC router to be cut.
