Custom Serial Plates
CoryBee:
The lady friend I made the "LED\Wood Beating Heart" for thought the tiny serial plates was the cutest thing she had ever seen and demanded that I made her one. Here it is, ready for a keychain.

Here is an instructable that shows the process and a pic of the result shown below - ( http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-etch-aluminum-panel-labelsdesigns-with-a-r/ )

Thanks for that, will definitely read over about it. Can't hurt to learn new things.
What do you think of your plate JBFan?

Hasn't arrived yet but from the pics it will look perfect on the back of the bartop !! (Actually need something to put on there as I ran into a small problem with the build -- When downsizing a project to 75% OF ORIGINAL DESIGN MAKE SURE THERE IS STILL ROOM INSIDE TO FIT THE PSU !!) :hissy:
Got it to fit by cutting an opening in the back and framing with some aluminum marquee holders (still need to clean it up a bit and add a fan and a couple USB connectors for a thumb drive and wireless keyboard\mouse) but at least it does fit now with everything inside. :laugh2:

I've decased PSU's for that reason.
