Default Pics of my latest project (in progress)

Well, after FlameProof died, I had to get a new rig. I got this case from the boss, and started hooking up the inside. But, I had to do something unique to it, so here it is, FlameProof Reloaded...

Specs will be listed if you're interested, just know it's fast.

Yup, I actually did do all the etching by hand, and yes, a really long time.

I can't wait to finish the other side's paint job...

I need to clock this higher.

Did you use a Dremel with an etching attachment, or is there something better? Can't say I've done any etching myself (save for etching cream on glass), but I wouldn't mind giving it a shot on my next project. Looks like it takes a lot of patience and a steady hand -- nice job!

yeah, i recently saw that the dremel has an etching attachment and was thinking of picking one up and tryin my hand at it. also did you teach yourself to etch? or did you read a site or books? any info would be appreciated

I'm a semi-professional artist, and I just did it with grinding stones, barrel and ball end mill bits, and a engraving bit. No books, just got down and did it.

Thanks all, I also need to get a pic of the etched floor and wall plates, that are even stranger than the side...
