The First Cut is the Deepest
After printing, we had sets of two sheets of graphics on Sintra: a 6mm sheet for the deer pieces, and
a 13mm sheet for the base components, both ready to go to
the Zünd for cutting. There are multiple router-bit options
for cutting Sintra, but we had to be sure to pick the same
one we used to determine our shapes (see Step 3), so that
everything fit as planned.
Equipment and Supplies Used
Hardware and Software: EFI Vutek PressVu
200/600 SC printer, Zünd G3 digital cutting system,
Adobe Illustrator, McNeel Rhino 5 modeling
software, Onyx Thrive RIP
Materials: Sintra PVC, z-clips
Tools and Miscellaneous: Screwdriver, screws

Assembly, Install, and Video
The pieces to one set were packaged (kitted) with
the set of PDF instructions and readied for shipping. According to our stopwatch, one person can assemble
the kit in about 10 minutes, and we routed out guide holes
in the base to show where to attach the z-clips for mounting to the wall. Along the way, however, we learned that the
assembly would be easier if the pieces were held a certain
way, so we recorded a video of one sign being assembled in
our shop and posted it online to give installers in the field
every resource possible to easily get the job done.
So far, we've produced two completed deer heads for
Red Robin, and they've added these to two of their remodeled stores. Our involvement is projected over the next
couple of years - the restaurant chain has about 460 units,
and they could all end up with one of these (although full
coverage isn't guaranteed).
