    I guess I thought I had seen this before and I've skipped over it many times. I am SOOOO glad I watched it this time. I really like this frame. And I did not know that you could paint the glass and then laser it. And what a great idea to paint the back white. I love this.

    Man you made that frame build look so easy, I make glass art and I'm trying to find out how to backlight it in a frame but I'm not so adept at woodworking.

    Like it. I like it a lot. I'm going to do something along these lines. I just saw the one you helped Johnny at Crafted Workshop etch. Need to get it done quick. I'll need it by the 4th.

    Nice Video thanks Brad. Quick question - what type of tool was used at the very beginning cutting your frame? Thinking of a birthday gift for Hubby :)

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a Micro Jig Grr-Ripper, you can see it here: amzn.to/2b5ilFV (affiliate link). It's an awesome tool!

  • @danesantos8533
    @danesantos8533 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you use any kind of spray paint for the etched side of glass? What kind of settings for the laser?

  • @AbideinChristFully
    @AbideinChristFully 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not enough time spent on lasering the glass. What glass is that, and how do you have black turn to white when lasering? You flew past that with not much explanation.

  • @summerswoodworking
    @summerswoodworking 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @banksy444

  • @superlazyorg
    @superlazyorg 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do you recall the power and speed settings that you used for the laser?

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +superlazyorg I'm wanting to say it was in the neighborhood of 25 speed and 60 to 80 power. But not certain.

    • @superlazyorg
      @superlazyorg 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cool, thanks for the reply! I assume that's 25 mm/sec; and 60-80% of the max power of 40 watts, right?

  • @munawarsoomro8958
    @munawarsoomro8958 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for a great video. One question. Did you laser mirrored in back or through black paint in front?

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Munawar Soomro through the paint on the front. Then covered the back with white paint

    • @munawarsoomro8958
      @munawarsoomro8958 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks

  • @chadburns76
    @chadburns76 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just curious as to why you lasered the front instead of doing the reverse on the back of the glass to protect the finish?

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I had to etch off the black spray paint. It wouldn't work the other way

    • @chadburns76
      @chadburns76 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fix This Build That I understood the way it worked I meant why shouldn't you spray the back and do it that way?

  • @831Adventures
    @831Adventures 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    how the hell can I make something like this without a $3k laser engraver?

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +Aaron Nguyen Ike I said in the video, you can use vinyl stickers (cheap to buy on Etsy) and spray paint then peel away the vinyl to leave the negative impression.

    @stephendavies6126 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks great but over £3000 pounds for the laser, not an economical build.

    Sign is Badass. But for us putz's with no laser.....all we can do I a nice light box.

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Michael Zellner instead of etching you could also use vinyl stickers and spray over it then remove the sticker for a negative effect. Still need access to vinyl stickers but those are much easier to acquire.

    • @MadZell

      Awesome idea. That makes this a complete DYI! Thank you!
