Frontpanels are easy to make from white acrylic, spray painted matte black and then engraved. The white will reappear and make for some great effects. The MS33558 font completes the look.

Engraved 3d-printed earrings for a vegetarian (her request).

A hinged box for my VNA meter. Foam is also really easy to cut, allowing for tight packing of sensitive equipment.

And finally acrylic frontpanels for my Enigma-E machine. This decodes german WWII messages. Either you try to make an exact replica, or you go all-out the other way. :slight_smile:
