Toxic Green and Black Peel Ply 300 SN.

Vader1 · Mar 16, 2014

I just got finished with this scale project. It's a simple clean look that I feel makes it nice. I still need to finish a back spacer with a lanyard hole. Here are a few pics to look at.

I can try and take some better pictures for you soon. I used Gorilla epoxy to laminate the green to the black. Sand, glue(use some wax paper around the pieces), clamp, dry 24 hours.

That is pretty Awesome I love the green, it would be awesome if it was florescent where it will glow in a black light or in the dark. I would like to see more of your work!

Yeah a glow strip would be cool. Maybe my back spacer will be glow.

Would you be interested in making me one or show how you did it?

I will definitely check it out. I have a general idea of material. Would also be cool to make your own grips with a 3d printer.

That looks very cool. The green really makes it stand out. Great job.

Thanks again. I know it's simple but It was good design for st. Patrick's Day.

There is one more for you mylastregret :thumbup:

CNC routers are cool also. I have found that nothing beats hand crafted work, It can have more character. It depends on what you are making or the look you are after.
