Mechanic Hourly Rate Sign

Mechanic Hourly Rate - $100 standard, $150 if you watch, $200 if you worked on it first, $250 if you tell me how to do my job. Tall panel with a wrench across the top, cut as one piece. Every shop wants one on the wall.

Included files:
- Mechanic-Shop-Rates-Sign.svg - vector art for CAM software
- Mechanic-Shop-Rates-Sign.dxf - CAD file, DXF R12, cut geometry on layer CUT
- Mechanic-Shop-Rates-Sign.tap - cut-ready G-code for FireControl (14 gauge steel)

These files are drawn at 16 inches wide x 24 inches tall. Scale them to whatever size you need - they are vectors, so they resize cleanly.

Files are true-to-design with no kerf compensation applied - set your own kerf offset in your CAM software to match your machine.

The .tap is posted for FireControl so you can drop it straight on the table. The SVG and DXF carry a small Tin Man Metal Works text layer under the artwork, on its own layer so one click removes it - it is plain text, not cut geometry, so it will not be cut.

Want to cut this without SheetCam?

I built Cut File Studio to replace Inkscape, SheetCam, Fusion 360 and your nesting software in one app. It auto-bridges letters in one click, nests your parts and gives you a FireControl file ready for your table. Free while we're in beta: https://www.cutfilestudio.com
