Information

      I have just completed building a bar and wanted some personalised signs around it.  I wanted something that firstly named the bar but also included our heritage so I included a Scottish thistle and Polish eagle.  I used AI to make some designs but everyone preferred the one that I made in XCS.  Obviously the name and pictures can be changed but I hope that you like the idea of a lit sign that is simple to make.

I completed multiple engraving tests to determine what settings I should use.

 

I then engraved the mirror.  

REMEMBER TO ENGRAVE THE BACK AND MIRROR THE IMAGE IN XCS (I learned this the hard way!)

Once engraved, I placed the mirror into a 2" deep frame (I got mine from IKEA) and placed some small lights behind it to produce the desired effect.
