Log/wood typeface - various {gang}

anonymous22 Mar 2002

Hey...I am looking for a font that has letters that are made of tree logs. I'm not looking for a wood font, but one that looks as if one made letters out of log pieces...
...I had seen one somewhere...can't find it....

Sheesh.
Where's a tinderbox when you need one...

There are two classic freeware fonts (should be available on any one of the vast smorgasbord of enormous mostly-crap free font archives) that fit your bill. "Logger" and "Wood Badge." Great for invitations to Twin Peaks film festivals and so forth.

I did a quick google search to find a site where one could download Logger, and found many a Boy Scouts of America page which had it up for download, interestingly (for example: http://sne.tripod.com/clip.htm ). I kept finding it only in PC.ttf form; if you're on a mac, you will either need to look harder than me or use a tt converter utility.

for your wood font, check the Solotype catalog by Dan X. Solo. Also, I think Larabie might have a wood/log font, but don't quote me on it.
