A custom name sign maker for laser cutting turns a name or short phrase into a clean, connected sign that cuts as one piece — no floating letter centres falling out. You get SVG and DXF sized in millimetres for wood or acrylic, ready for Glowforge, xTool, or LightBurn. Add a photo or motif alongside the text in the editor. First sign is free, no signup.
Connected lettering
Letters and script tails are joined so the sign cuts as one piece — no centres dropping out.
True millimetre size
Set the real width and it exports at that size, so a 300mm sign cuts as 300mm.
Add a motif
Pair the name with a photo, pet, or icon in the free editor for a personalised piece.
Free to try
First signs free, no email. A popular custom gift and a strong seller for makers.

Name signs that actually cut
The classic problem with a laser name sign is floating pieces — the inside of an "o", the dot of an "i", the loop of a script "e" — that fall out when you cut. This maker connects those pieces so the whole sign cuts as one solid part. You set the real size in millimetres and export SVG and DXF that drop straight into your laser software.
Bold, script, or modern
Pick a feel that suits the piece: a bold block font for a sturdy shelf sign, a flowing script for a wedding or nursery sign, or a clean modern face for decor. Script fonts are handled carefully so the connecting strokes look intentional, not like repair bridges.
Add a photo or motif
A name on its own is great, but a name next to a pet, a monogram, or a small icon is what sells. Use the editor to place a photo-derived motif beside the text, all sized together and exported as one laser-ready file.
