    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.

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

  • @ASimplySimpleLife
    @ASimplySimpleLife 8 лет назад +1

    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 лет назад

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

  • @chadburns76
    @chadburns76 5 лет назад

    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 лет назад

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

    • @chadburns76
      @chadburns76 5 лет назад

      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

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

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  6 лет назад +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.

    Yeah I'll just factor in the money for the laser machinery...😂

  • @superlazyorg
    @superlazyorg 7 лет назад +1

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

    • @Fixthisbuildthat
      @Fixthisbuildthat  7 лет назад

      +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 лет назад

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

  • @AbideinChristFully
    @AbideinChristFully 6 лет назад +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.

    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 лет назад +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!
