    Default Corian

    Hi NYT,

    I read the thread where you had purchased Cameo, Bone and Glacier white Corian. I have carved a Lithophane on the Cameo White. I recenly bought some Bone White and Glacier White which I plan on carving on this weekend.

    I was wondering if you have carved on all of those colors. The reason I am asking is because I was wondering which is the best color to use for the Lithophane. I do not want the detail to wash out if the Glacier White is too bright.

    Default lighting

    I don't know how well this would work, I get a sale email from harbor freight and they have a battery powered led light strip on sale. Here is the link http://ww4.harborfreight.com/zcom/pr...emNumber=96793. Don't know if it would work for lighting lithophanes or not just thought I'd post it. Thanks for all the info and tips you guys give, I hope to try a lithophane soon still trying to get my hands on some corian, may just have to order the stuff off of the CW store.

    Default Corian

    You can sand it off with 320 grit paper. Will not affect the finish.

    Default Carving Plastics

    Isn’t it always the way,

    Earlier today I had one of your trucks stop by at a plastic fabricating company that dose work for us,
    to ask if the had any Cast Acrylic or Polycarbonate sheet scraps I could use to practice a little Machine Carving and Engraving on.
    In the note I said I was looking for Quarter, Three Eights, or Half Inch Sheet Stock in Clear, Translucent, or White,
    and that any Samples or Scraps would be most appreciated.



    Now I have the Sheet Stock ----- but my machine is in Texas.
