This is the most complex one I’ve done so far, and I almost ran out of material (single straightened coathanger), so ~8 letters max. Coathanger is surprisingly difficult to bend into such intricate shapes. It took me around 2½ hours to do with two different types of pliers plus hand bending.

I literally freehanded this though, no predrawn pattern or anything, just following as close as I can to my own freehand cursive writing. I’m thinking about making a bit of a side job out of it, like $5 a letter…

What you folks think?

Edit: I made a point to weight balance it at the tip of the T for hanging on the wall or wherever.

Edit 2: Criticize me as necessary, my cursive is still slightly rusty…

    True, although you’d start the t from the edge of the vertical line of the w rather than the ground line. I actually couldn’t see the confusion until you pointed this out

      I’ve got messy writing, I was taught to drop the R at a slant and come back with loop before starting the next letter.

      It’s also wire, so some allowances for material ductileness. Context makes what it should be obvious,

      Just like Cowtown could be confused as courtown, but ones more likely than the other. Cowtney is just poking fun though.
