Like most folks, I look for the low hanging fruit first. If necessary, I'll fetch a ladder.

Cotoris is very, very nice, but it unfortunately has several closed counters. Thanks for your help, though.

Vanitas is not bad, but I really don't want a "stenciled" version of a letter when it is not necessary. IOW, Vanitas unnecessarily breaks letters such as C E F Y into 2 parts (elements).

No serifs. Nothing blockish. I will be using the font with a paper/laser cutter and the serifs would make things difficult at small sizes.

I am looking for something traditional, professional, clean...nothing crazy silly looking. The Blue Island is in the ball-park. But one strike against Blue Island is that the ZERO has a closed counter.

I realize that there are "STENCIL" fonts that would do what I am looking for, however, every stencil font I've seen looks like a stencil...that is, they look ugly. I am looking for fonts with open counters, meaning, no negative space. The letters which present the problem are A B D O P Q R a b d e g o p q These all have "closed counters". Thanks.
