OK guys, I'm having some trouble getting etchings on the acrylic to light up.

I put an LED in the side of the acrylic, although not very well because of how the bit was sort of "stepped." So the LED doesn't fill the hole. I etched the "outside" of the scrap acrylic, but the etching didn't light up. Do I need to etch from the "inside?"

Or could the drill bit be my problem?

I'll try to get some pics up soon.

If you guys want to fly up to Maine, I'll tell my mom to prepare the case and my dremel, then you can fly it out to Washington (a loooooooooooong flight, trust me).

That's why its not being worked on (the whole summer ).

If you've got the whole summer then surely you could teach her what she needs to do to finish it!

It's all good man, I'm looking forward to seeing the topic reply notification in a few months

Have a good summer

Everything looks good so far except for ^ this. What happened there? Now that looks like a ghetto hack job.

Did you ever get your new dremel?
