No need up be nervous on camera. I think you were brilliant. This is a hand made craft technique...does not have to be 100% perfect. That's what makes the project unique. I love the techniques you demonstrated . Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy knife etching, but $30 a pop for a descent knife... Yeah. Looking to try glass and stone. This method is quite similar to how I etch designs on to wood sheathes. Gonna give it a go, and yes, safety first.
+Ellin Louise Miller Snoxell No problem! The tools I used are slightly cheaper than the cream (though you may already have them), but I get so much more use out of them that it was worth it. 😁
This is awesome!!! I have access to jeweler's tools, so I am definitely trying this out. My first thought was to put the abstergo logo on the bottom like the shot glass we see in ac3.
+Bonnie Savey I actually used of brand stone bits, so the color code is useless for me. However, I'd test the finest grit stone you have (you should be able to look it up if they're official) in a small area, and if it looks good go with that one. If out doesn't look the way you'd like you can easily hide your test area by grinding over it with the coarser bit while you fill in the rest.
Yep. As long as you make sure to wash everything thoroughly before use it's no different from glass that was etched with a cream. In fact I still use that mug regularly (including this morning).
+dollrescuer True, but I could better definition with cream while still technically crafting it myself. Making stencils without a vinyl plotter is a pain though. 😛
Cly Faker cream is messy and can get expensive. This way you can have tools for other things. I'm a HUGE fan of power tools. They are versatile, etching cream is limited. Your work is awesome!

Oh how I wish you'd make more dice videos. You are a very likeable person!

Yay i was just about to go and buy etching cream thanks for saving me.

+UkeMasterDewey That world definitely be neat. If you go that route, be sure to use a thinner bottomed shot glass than I did. 😜
props for basically free handing this, but I started with the etch cream and am loving the results from it. I will be looking up that coffee cup tho!
"I dont have enough nerdy mugs"
Me: who has about 4: same, dude, same! XD
I have a dremel and 2 boxes of additional bits. What stone but would I use for the “fill in”?

Now, on the other side of that same mug, put a d20 with a crit fail lol
+Rick Fravor That's actually a really good idea. I could always do that on my backup mug instead to make a matching set. 😂
Hey, if you sell I want royalties lol jkjk
+Rick Fravor lol
Can u drink and eat out of those still

Imperfect designs indicate handcrafted items. Handcrafted items are far better than store-bought items. That's just my opinion.

+dollrescuer I will say that the stone bits wear out after a couple of pieces. Fortunately you can get them online 10 for $1 or so.
You must be joking !! Looks awful
Let's see your first attempt!
