    Hey, your sign looks amazing. Great work. Just need to ask when you are laser engraving the work harder on transparent sheet how it looks white with black background? I didn't get that point. If you clear me this would be really appreciated

    • @TroytheMaker
      @TroytheMaker  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      When engraving on clear acrylic it looks white through the screen but it is really a frost color.

    Great video, Troy! Quick question: Which version of CorelDraw 2020 do you use? The CorelDRAW Standard 2020 version? Thanks again for your videos!

    • @TroytheMaker

      Coreldraw 2020 full version, but subscription base.

    Do you have to use the black back piece behind the clear acrylic? Or Can You Just Use The Clear Acrylic?

    • @TroytheMaker
      @TroytheMaker  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, you do not have to use a black acrylic back. I just wanted it to shine as bright as possible.

    So cool!!! I just tried to make some acrylic game controller stands and used the acrylic liquid adhesive and omg it left drip marks and you could see where it adhered through the acrylic. So frustrating I wasted alot of colored acrylic. I guess I will try E6000 next time.

    Now that's what I'm talking about!! I was really wondering how that green acrylic was going to look like..thanks for showing that.. I ran into that problem with the glue also, so I sometimes use clear glossy tape on the edges to keep the acrylic together. Great Video! Thank you Troy!

    I have a question. Why add additional black background to the clear. Since the box is black why do you need to back the clear with black? Seems the clear with out the black background would be sufficient. Thanks for the idea. I will try it.

    • @TroytheMaker
      @TroytheMaker  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. I added the black background to make it the thickness to slide inside without flopping around.
