Another tip

Post by BSImages »

One problem I have noticed, using a V-Bit to cut a Lithophane, is it leaves some artifacts behind, diagonal lines and black specs, when viewed with back light. If you use a scrub brush with soap and water, allow to dry. Then simply apply a coat of clear spray lacquer, you will not believe your eyes!
