Category: Let's talk
hello:
I find myself signing more and more things as of late. Because of this, I am looking to perfect my signature. I am of the third generation of men who carry my name and I would like to incorporate this element into my signature, only writing it the usual way, as roman numerals, is nearly impossible, or always turns out less than desirable. Any ideas on how I might accomplish this? I do not want a stamp or anything like that. Some method of handwriting is preferred.
Its three I's, what problem are you having with that precisely? That will help
us give suggestions of how to fix it.
v
So are you the third, or the fourth? If the fourth, a V is just two lines that
meet at an angle. Draw the pen downward to the right, stop, then upward to
the right, both lines straight.
I'm the third
Then why do you need a V? There is no V in the roman numeral three.
Terribly sorry about the confusion.
I was trying to paste something from MS word and apparently I missed the control key or something.
Post 3 should've said:
When I signed them in the past, before I lost my vision, the way I was taught they were always connected, in such a way that it ceased to be three I's and became one larger character, with three columns if you will. So I can't "draw" this figure and am looking for an alternative way to express the same concept, or a way of getting the lines to connect. Does that make sense?
Ah, I understand now. Well, do you use a signature guide? If you do, you
might be able to use that as a base to form it.
I don't use one all that often, usually because I don't have one handy, plus I can never get them to not move around on me while I'm signing.
I might just need to practice a bit more, using it as a base could potentially work though.
Yeah, I've found the ones that have a rubber backing stay put better than the
basic plastic ones. There is also paper you could buy to practice that has raised
lines. So you could learn how to make the symbol on that, then use it to form
your signature.
I've Never seen one with a rubber backing. I'll have to look in to that.
Usually metal ones do in my experience.
The rubber backing signature guides are pretty awesome. I got one years ago. Lightning is right, they're usually metal, with a rubber backing. That helps them remain stable on the documents you're trying to sign. As for the rest of it, practice does indeed make perfect. Just keep working at it.
a for signature guides, you can have someone make you one out of gasket material. they work well.
also, if you know someone who has a rowder, spelling, you can have them use it to carve your nae in to a thin piece of wood. then you trace your pen or pencil through the grooves until your muscle memory knows how to do it. you can have a fairly large carving and then one that is the size you need to use for a normal signature. this is how I was taught. my dad had the idea, tried it, and it worked. I am told my signature is readable.
wow that carving idea is really clever. I'm going to have to give that a go.
There is also a laser which can etch letters into different items. It might also be possible to 3d print one of these? It would be nice if they could be massproduced.
There is no rule that says you have to use roman numerals. If it was easier for you, you could use the Arabic number three and then add rd.
I just use a signature stamp, they are good for anything. Since I could never manage to write my name, my signature is actually the signature is of my dead sister doing it. Lazy me,
To Reader, where did you get your stamp?
Coming on this topic: I got mine from office depot after my hand was guided to make my own signature on a piece of paper which I brought into office depot. Then a stamp was made. If you have a hassle with a stamp being used, have a witness put their initials under the signature or their own names under the signature.
I use a signature stamp, and love it. The first one I had, I got from Staples. Now I get them from a local place called American Marking.
I think you just have to except you can't see, and you can't see where you're
writing precisely. No, I don't write all over the paper I am able to write in the
slot, but I can't see my lines. so if they are not connected, shaped wrongly, or
connect too much, than that's just that. I can't see and my penmanship even if
it's in nice cursive isn't going to be amazing. I don't think that they're looking
for amazing in these things. none of my signatures look alike some of them are
better than others. I try to generally make them the same, but no guarantees. I
am a perfectionist but there's also reasonability too.
