Now that sounds interesting. I'll have to look thru my porn. HeHeHe :-)

Here is my attempt at a Yoda etch. It is only 5" x 5" so I am sure it would look much nicer if it was large.


EDIT: after making a large one I seen a few places I actually missed. See the larger one below.

Here is the final product for ranger. It is 14" square and the detail took me quite some time. Any thoughts?

I know exactly what you want, but I do not know about size. It would be an awesome etch to do, so send me a PM with the size and I will send you a price.

Hope to hear from you soon.

This etch is awesome i just have to drill the rivits out of my door and get some new rivits to mount it or small screws like i did to the other etch you did for me, Thanks Sn0wMan for doing this etch for me, the picture does not justify it's self as much as seeing it in person.

Thanks guys. After having done a few it is getting much easier and I enjoy doing it. I would be happy to do some etches for anyone.

Also I am showing everything in blue because I have a little blue LED flashlight and it is extremely easy to just push a button and snap the pic. When I get some more free time to work on my case mod I will wire some different colored LEDs for this.

You guys should also know I am trying to rig up a little battery pack with a switch to wire some LEDs into a picture frame. Cut the notches out of the etch, add a little glue and BAM you have a sweet lit up picture frame. After I get it going I may start including it.

Here you go Sn0wMan, here is those pictures sorry for the glare in them my camera catches everything, i mounted the etch on my UFO Internet machine with the red Led's these lights make it look really bright but it is not, it is hard to take a good picture and is hard to tell by picture but it looks really awesome in person..
