Well, THAT makes sense, changing the VIEW to see things better. Generally, 'Rotate' is used to mean a translation of the image, not a change in view.What Dave was suggesting was not rotating an image as such but using the Isometric view in designer to look at the image on angle to make sure it's inverted correctly before carving.
Happy carving , Jeff Birt

Ken there's a ton of info on carving corian and lighting the light boxes including the how to on building them. do a quick Search -- Key word Corian
I have used both 110 volt and battery power lights from Radio Shack and Michael’s craft store. The plug in ones I use have a roller switch in the cord and are often used around Halloween, Christmas and use night light sized bulbs to light up pumpkins, decorations and the like from the inside. They cost a couple of bucks; -- as a matter of fact I’ve seen them in a couple of Dollar stores

Hey Matty,
Thanks for the directions. I've been tring do make a lithopane for months now with no good results. I was doing everything you did except inverting the pic. Well I tried a new project and I was amazed that it finally worked and looked like the original pic. Thanks again, Mike.

Just wondering where to get corian.
Still using 1.120 & 1.126
I got mine from a member on the forum named cooldxx. If you do a search for homework projects you will see what he has done, plus what he sells and prices he also lists his email to contact him. If you can't find it pm me and I'll give you his email.
Hello,
I just received a batch of twelve 1/4" White Corian sheets today, and on the back of the sheets there is black-stamped printing saying "Adhesive Side, etc.).
Does anyone have a tip for an easy way to remove the printing (so it won't show up with the light shining through)?
Michael T
Happy Carving!
