Arrow/button decals?

0rion · Posted: Sun Mar 18, 2007 4:05 pm Post subject: Arrow/button decals?

I'm not sure if this warrants a new thread, because I asked on the Cobalt Flux sticky and got basically zilch by way of responses.

I want to make my pad look super-special-awesome, and I'm looking for some neat decals for it. Anyone have any site recommendations? I know there are some sites out there with cool printable decals, but now that I actually want to use them I can't find them.

Got any leads?

This is a little more involved than just printing out a decal, but you can print out whatever picture/decal you want to use, tape it to your pad, score the lines (i use a razor), then use a polishing wheel (Dremel P/N DRE425) to shade in the image...

I never tried it on anything but lexan though... on which it will 'blur', giving it a semi-transparent 'cloudy' look. I plan to use this method to 'etch' arrows into my lexan panels, which should look sweet with a good lighting system

it sounds like you're looking for a color decal though...
