there was a fellow here a few years ago, showed us his series of Boss copies. he'd cut the parts from perspex, then glued them all up, and they looked perfect. except, he then spray-painted them. oh, well.

I have several versions of this tragedy playing through my head from guessing at various ways spray paint can go wrong aesthetically :icon_eek:.  Could you provide a little more detail so I can sleep again at night?  :icon_wink:

Great, now I have RANDOM capitalization and excessive punctuation TO give me nightmares too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   :icon_lol:

I solemnly promise that anything I do with clear cast acrylic will remain clear.  By the way, one awesome thing about acrylic is that you can polish it (hard to drill without cracking it, but I'll accept that cost).

too much punctuation? me? no, I'd not think so. to cut acrylic you want a knife set saw blade, with shrp cutting edges, to drill it a lot, without cracking, you'd need to regrind the ?rakes?lands?webs? I dunno which - on the bits so's they was ..... different to metal/wood angles.

Not you.   :icon_smile:
I was referring to our Peruvian plexiglass painter.  But, I think it wasn't very nice of me anyway.  :icon_redface:
