Jim Hamilton goes on to say, 'ArtCAM Pro also opens up other markets to expand into including wood working and the art field. Our craftsman can now work on other important components of a project while the router effortlessly does its job.'

When you realise that most sign projects are double-sided or involve multiple pieces, you can quickly see how using the software and the router can save time.

ArtCAM Pro was recently added to the growing arsenal of sign making capabilities. Some of the company’s clients include Sea World, the Cleveland Zoo and the National Park Service. Jim, who is also the company’s primary designer, said, 'We don't simply make signs we create powerful images that influence a viewers perception of a company or organisation.' Though most of the signs look traditional, they are often produced using futuristic materials, modelling software and a computerised router, combined with the classic techniques of carving, gilding and hand painting.īill Hamilton, Jim’s younger brother and head craftsman, adds, 'We have the ability with our high-tech capabilities to create the best quality signage, but it's still the design and finish that separates us.' Established in 1993, Northcoast Signworks has quickly become one of the nation's leaders in dimensional sign work.

'It gives us the unique ability to create custom production pieces in a way that saves time and ensures quality.' 'ArtCAM Pro has definitely changed the way we look at and produce signs' exclaimed Jim Hamilton, President of Northcoast Signworks, based in Richfield, USA.
