Custom Hand-Drawn Aviation Plaque – Solid Ambrosia Maple Heritage Piece

The Artistry
Unlike mass-produced plaques that use stock clip art, every element of this piece starts on my iPad. I hand-draw your specific aircraft and up to 6 military patches in Procreate to ensure every detail—from the aircraft load out to the squadron embroidery—is historically accurate and personal to your career.

The Materials

Wood: Crafted from a single, 3/4" thick slab of Ambrosia Maple. Known for its distinct "ghost" grain and natural highlights, no two plaques are ever the same.

Dimensions: A commanding 24" wide by 9" tall—perfect for office walls or mantle displays.

The "Cradle" Mount: I custom-engineered a low-profile shelf mount using Shapr3D and precision 3D printing. It is included free of charge to give you the flexibility of a wall-mount or a freestanding display.

Finish Options

Natural: Sanded to a buttery smooth 220-grit, showing the raw beauty of the maple.

Satin Poly: A deep, protective finish that makes the ambrosia grain "pop." (Note: Please allow 2 additional days for the finish to fully cure before shipping).
