    Default Skull cut out

    I made a picture awhile back and thought that it would be a good design for a window cut out. I havn't modding anything ever before, so I'm not ready to try this yet. If you would like to use this design go ahead. Also I'm not sure, but maybe the lines down the top and bottom need to be wider to have a better brace.

    I think it looks pretty sweet. I wouldn't think that the lines need to be bigger if you have that plexiglass behind. Wouldn't that be enough support?

    That is pretty sweet. As long as you are careful doing the cuts those lines should be plenty good. If you have access to a lasr cutter it would be no problem whatsoever. With a dremel you just have to be carefull not to twist or bend the metal.

    I was thinking this would look good in UV Blue acrylic. The Nose part is the only issue I can see with cutting it out. No real strong way to hold it together. (but I don't have a laser at my house to try it with .. just a band saw).

    Still need to borrows CCM from C3 or Bell & Quality new one from Grunville.
    or better yet find someone that has one in my state.

    That would be a sweet fan grill. The outer ring blue uv Plexi, the center black modders mesh, (that way the nose has something to bound to. Highlight it all with UV LEDS, maybe 2 UB blue LEDs inside used as spot lights to highlight th mesh (not too bright just a little glow!) too bad I don't have a case to use thes idea's in right now (not sure where I could put a skull at on R2? )

    Nice pic by the way,

    haw .. there would be someone that could find a little better way for the nose. I was thinking using standard clear Acrylic but the mesh for A.C.Ryan or MNPCTECH would do a good job for holding it in place ...

    Now I just need to see if I will have the extra blue Acrylic left over to give it a try. Fold it in half and cut it out with my band saw to get a match sides.

    again I am like you doesn't really fit the theam of any of my projects. Might be fun to do later on.

    this would look neat, but dunno...


    Also, if you use this design, I would love to see it posted here or a link.

    maybe a tighter mesh (holes closer and more of them) would be better than the really big holes.

    Or a sheet or plexi in behind it would also work.
