Plaque
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, July 8, 2004 1:44 PM
Hi everyone!!

I was thinking of making plaques for my finished models. Basically, a brass or silver sign stating the name of the model, scale, and year. Has anyone ever done this? I was thinking this would look nice and also a good way to distinguish different finished models.

My question though, is how to do this. Has anyone done this, and if so, do you have hints, pictures, etc?

Thanks for your help!!

You need a Dremel, etching agents, copper sheets, wood.
Dress the wood plaque in copper, engrave the letters using the Dremel, brush with etching agent so that the letters darken.
