Making the Dream Big Glass Etching in LED Edge-lit Frame
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- This was a project that took me 2 years to get to, and it ended up being a very different project from the original idea of a wood carving! The idea came to me when a random conversation made me think of glass exit signs that are lit from the top.
So why not create my own edge-lit LED frame to see if I could get a similar effect on a glass etching?
Main Supplies:
Armour Etch Etching Cream -www.amazon.com...
14x14 Tempered Glass - www.storesuppl...
Wood Float Frame by Darice 14"x14" picture size - bought at wayfair.com
Govee Alexa LED Light Strip - www.amazon.com...
Tools:
Silhouette Cameo 4, phillips screwdriver, Dremel tool (w/drum sander sleeves and mandrels), digital caliper, medium grit sandpaper, tape, paintbrush
Next time try cutting your template as a mirror image and etch the design backwards on the back side of the glass. LED edge lighting looks a little better that way.
Thank you for that recommendation! That is a great idea!! I didn't even think about that!

Could you please tell me .... what that white color material called which you apply on glass?
Armour Etch Cream
nice work! could this also be done with plexiglass? do you know that?
Sandblasting.
I don't know of an acid that would work properly on plexiglass/stencil.

Once you have etched the mirror, does an LED light pass through it when it is put at the back?
I think you should not set your camera on autofocus.
Nice..I’m going to try doing one..
Very nice but so labor intensive !
can the cream work on acrylic?
Nice work,
i want to be your student.
Blurry
I can't even understand
First!!
It just had to be you! Haha
Please what is the name of the chemical for itching
It's likely Armour Etch - Glass Etching Cream - or similar.
What was that white thing you use over the desighn
I used a hard plastic spatula-type thing to ensure good adhesion on the edges before applying the armour etch cream.
Great job 👏
Which Kind of paper is that?
The red is sticker vinyl. I design the vector then cut the vinyl with a Cameo 4.
