    I like the Cecil street one too, although i prefer the "front on" veiw of the premises. its on Great western road isnt it? it was "Aladdins" before… i occasionally eat there when at my older brothers house as he lives just along from it.

    some great work there bobby…

    The edge lit acrylic…
    is that two 10mm bits of acrylic engraved faces then mounted back to back?
    just wondering how you got the reverse side to line up accurate after routering the face. just me being nosey… :lol1:
    very nice effect/idea.

    Hi Rob,

    It was 20mm clear acrylic engraved both sides…….now if you increase your orders by 25% I will tell you how! :lol1:

    ive engraved both sides of hundreds of tags and things, just by making a jig up and flipping the tags/signs over and engraving the back. but not something like that, clear and having to mirror the text on the opposite side to still line up bang on.

    ok, ill go order a squeegee… 😉
