magnifier
This is done on a little 3x magnifier I found at Harbor freight. It is very thin plastic, so I cut it with less than 5 lbs air pressure with a 90*. It was fun to do.

Re: magnifier
Hi Gail. Your scroll and shading looks great. I'll bet that did take a light touch because I never would have known that was plastic ... looks like it cut nice and smooth as steel.
Don't forget to sign it. Your name on it, in a nice script, is the only thing missing. Chris |
