Engravings on Proofgrade Frosted Acrylic?

[julesmakesthings]

Has anyone worked with Frosted Acrylic? I’m mostly curious about how it looks engraved (nothing fancy - just a simple design or words!). Thank you in advance!

The words ‘Power’ and ‘Active’ are engraved on frosted acrylic.

living hinges, lots of engraves…

Did these for a friend. (and have since refined the design some more).

Nice! How did you get it to bend like that?

1/8" Acrylic is also very easy to form in an oven. You can heat a part up and drape it over an object to get it to conform to the mold or mandrel shape.
