I have a couple solutions for you.


1) Set up your tape grid on a scrap peice of plexi, or some other surface that will let you pull the tape up and then move it to the plexi.

OR

2) Print out your grid on a blank sheet of paper and cut out your grid. Then use adhesive spray to stick it onto your window. The adhesive is easily cleaned off with some mineral spirits.

..maybe it's too late, but it is possible to print on adhesive paper.. use a laser printer or a jet one... with a back to front feed mechanism, so as not to heat the paper and distort it... after you rint it, peel and stick it on the paper and either try etching it again (if u have more skills now.. practice and determination ) or carefully cut it and paint it, then pin-stripe it
good luck

Real nice work. Great acrylic skills, I like that front bay window alot.
Can you insonorized that pump? It's well hided, maybe you could, dont know, add some foam or something to cut the noise.
Continue, that's great work

I planned on adding foam later if necessary, we'll see how loud it is.

armadilloben if you read the post with the etch, he drew it out, and then had it laser etched. thats why it looks so nicely done

Hey hey! He's giving me mad props for my awesome etchign skillz, I don't mind. Let's not tell him I cheated

Allright guys, bad news.

I've posted in the Modding Q&A thread, I had a problem when trying to assemble and run my machine. The CD drives would not power on when I had the IDE cable plugged in the back. As soon as the IDE cable was removed the powered on and worked just fine.

I also took my current Harddrive in my old machine and tried to get the new machine to boot up on it, no luck. I figured somethign was wrong with my mobo at this point. I called ASUS and explained the problem. They didn't even give me any suggestions or anything, they just told me to RMA the sucker. So, I'm going to do that today/tomorrow, and since it's Christmas time I don't expect it to get back to me anytime soon =/

At least now I have time to work on my paint job.

lol my bad about the etching, jreffy no matter what form of creation that etch stilll looks sick also what ya meen by laser etched like what tool is used for laser etching *a laser?* or like a pcb printer or sumtin diff i havent heard of it
sorry bout the bad mobo i have experienced about 2 times on my builds thats why i went with the almighty dfi bc they arent broke the second their made. i actually fried my old socket A out of sheer ignorance because i bought my thermaltake armor case after 3 months of waiting and was like o yeah i jus got a kick but case!!! so i took the mobo out of the old case and put that sucka in without the stand offs plugged everything in and wtf, why isnt it working!!!!??!?!?!??!?!??! i ended up frieing the mobo one my boot drive thus leading me into my adventures with my lovoable opteron 175 and my dif mobo!!! and ben lived happily ever after the end.

whoa jreffy i jus thought a sumtin!!! dont rma yet!!! make sure u have the right jumper settings on t he drives cuz if they were both in slave or master on the same channel it might not power on also make sure the jumpers on the mobo are set right like usb power and ps2 power because i had problems were i could not get my mobo to boot, i switched the jumpers and it worked so check that too
