Unexpected addition for Christmas, needed a quick gift for my sons step son.
Bases were pre made so just needed the acrylic to be done.

I've done those for my grandsons. The great part is that when their interests change, or you find a really nice graphic, just engrave a new plate. They each have about half a dozen to swap in.

Thank you
Need to setup a photo area with a back drop etc rather than a piece of cardboard... hard to take good photos of the edge lit acrylic

Have a happy and safe Christmas

I've got a couple grandsons who would like this. Where did you get the graphic? Did you need to do any cleanup work on the graphic before etching it?

Thanks for sharing!

Can you please give me a name or link to the LED lights you use for these. They are really nice but I cant figure out what to buy for the lighting.

Thanks,
Steve

Search for Acrylic 3D Edge LED lights. Amazon has a million of them!
