Wildgoose 4,200 Posted April 10, 2014 Wow that is awesome! Can you share the file on that one? I have a brother in law who is a retired SeeBee. What is the #5 in the diamond about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rlvied 292 Posted April 10, 2014 Goose I will have to send the file by pm because of copyright but the diamond stands for the division he was in 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tooler82 182 Posted April 10, 2014 How did you get it that color? We have an engraving machine but I haven't learned a lot about it. How do you color it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darcshadow 1,626 Posted April 10, 2014 It's lit with green LEDs from inside the base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rlvied 292 Posted April 10, 2014 Tyler I have a small strip of green led lights in the base under the glass. You can buy them at auto zone or another like pep boys. they run off of 12 volt http://www.autozone.com/autozone/accessories/Lighting/LED-Lighting/_/N-261j Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted April 11, 2014 I bought a 5 meter roll on ebay for $9. You can cut it every 3 LED's to seperate it. Runs on 12V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted April 11, 2014 How big is that design and what did you use for masking? It looks pretty detailed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rlvied 292 Posted April 11, 2014 Jay the glass is 8 x 8" and the design is 4 1/2" around. I used Rayzist sr3000 photo mask because I didn't feel like weeding it. Glad you liked it thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted April 11, 2014 The Rayzist sr3000 photo mask looks slick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted April 11, 2014 The Rayzist sr3000 photo mask looks slick. if you go to a show check it out - really cool stuff and they are always at the nbm shows (along with ikonics - same stuff). I made a home made exposure unit for it 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted April 11, 2014 PS sorry to hijack Rivied Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rlvied 292 Posted April 11, 2014 No problems. About the only time I use it my self is when I do a couple of the same design or a lot of detail. I used to do it all with vinyl but hated weeding more then one of the same thing. I really like all the small detail you can get with the photo resist. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
