Yes. There are quite a few users here who have used the machine to make switch and receptacle plates. I myself am thinking about doing it for my son's room. He is into skateboarding and pro wrestling, so I was thinking about making some plate covers in the shape of skate boards or something.

It has been done before. Just do a search and you'll find something.

A few years ago I decorated the grandkids guest room with "adventure theme." Elephant carvings, zebra print rug and other things depicting exotic corners of the earth accent a large world map that doubles as the headboard. Around the light switch cover in a spiraling circular pattern I engraved with a cryptic letter: To find great treasure the start begins at (insert particular longitude and latitude for that location) The tools you will need are your head your heart and your feet. The journey will be the only prize you keep. Someday someone will interpret the message, then they will have to figure out the solution to the riddle of the numbers are on the map to their left and that living an adventurous life is the reward. That will be the one who gets the inheritance.

With this picture in mind perhaps you can imagine how appropriate the carving Ray Trek posted last fall "African Big Five Game Art" would be for carving a head board for this room. I vision carving large elephant tusks for the sides of it. I will need help with that when the time comes. (I will just raise the map a bit) What about it Ray, is that available for sale yet?

So how does this relate to the original post? I designed the whole room around the switch plate cover.

Thanks for any input or suggestions
