Couple of evenings making these parts from MDF.
There is a red and a green glass lens and not shown, a pair of solar powered decking lights.
Can you guess what it’ll be?
I’m really enjoying the X-Carve with MDF, nice clean cuts and ultra accurate pocketing and cut outs.

Looks almost like a train signal to me. Planning on running a railroad? 
Guess it was too easy Dan 
Not a whole railway but a garden ornament of a signal. Had the glass which are genuine British Rail signal glass for a while, wife is a railways fan and we’ve got an X-Carve. Seemed natural really.
Needs some paint and a little construction so hopefully done over the weekend. Aiming for something like this, below.

Dang, that’ll make for a cool-looking decoration! With LED lights, it’ll look really awesome at night, too. Heck, as far as that goes, rig up a microcontroller and a motion detector or something to change the signal based on nearby movement.
I need something like that for my garden when the deer come around to visit the “salad bar”
Triggered by a motion sensor and a ding-ding-ding sounder and moving flags it should scare the not so little ditch rats off.
Mind the Gap!
Sorry…

All priming and painting is done. Seal and assembly tomorrow.
Looking cool, man!
Just needs a final polish and mounting on a pole.
Solar lights all working, will try and get a picture after dark.

Dark enough to here now for the solar lights to automatically switch on. Hope that confusing signal doesn’t cause a train wreck. 
Finally got around to pole mounting the signal, added a finial and also carved a small sign.
Our local railway is the Great Western Railway, or G.W.R. So for the wife, Elizabeth, it’s E.W.R, and 004, or number 4 being her lucky number.
It’s carved in anodised aluminium and worked out nicely.
Cheers

Nice job.
I’m tempted to do something similar, but being a Train Controller, I’d never live it down…
