Just thought I'd share an Xmas gift I just finished for my wife. It's a picture of our daughter (Alicia Mae) when she was a baby (21 years ago last month!!!). The litho was done using DeskProto as I already own it  :| and it is my first, so please be kind  :mrgreen:

The black walnut frame was all done using VCarve Pro, and it's about  5/8ths X 5-3/8ths X 5-7/8ths. I used those 12V LEDs on a reel that you usually see folks using for these. I wired it up to a 5.5mm barrel pigtail connector to accept a 12V power supply wall wart. I actually put a 1/16th piece of lexan in front as I didn't like the idea of the litho being exposed to collect dust and such. It also gives it a bit more depth as well.

I also wanted this to be a "stand-alone" type picture frame so I used a 5 X 7 picture stand from a picture frame we had being unused. I angled the bottom of the frame to match so it would sit nice and firmly.

Sorry about my pics as these are quite a pain to take pictures of. Also, on the animated GIF picture, wait for it to completely load so you can see the lit version as well!

Thanks for looking,
Dave

Very Nice Dave!

NICE job, Now a question. If you flip the engraving around so the smooth side is OUT does the image look the same with the light on ?

Just curious, (;-) TP

Thank you Terry, and no, it's VERY blurry, but I bet for the right kind of picture, it might actually look nice if it didn't require seeing much detail.

Thanks Brett!

That's pretty awesome, Dave!
