Commissioned sign using 
clear acrylic and cherry and 3/4" standoffs. Reversed the engraving so it would be on the backside, and Viola!

Fabulous!
How did you do the white outline on the black? Incredibly steady hand, or is a different channel, or ??

The black is the cherry plywood engraved on the bottom layer. The white is the engraved acrylic, but used an offset path and then outline stroke for the white. No steady hand, just illustrator trickery.

Oh wow - that’s brilliant!

That’s a clever technique. It doesn’t look like the black is lower than the acrylic. Cool result.

The engraving on the acrylic is on the back, reversed, so literally touching the wood engraving.

So very shallow standoffs? I don’t think I’ve seen ones that didn’t leave something of a gap between the lower section (post) and the cap.

I think the standoffs are three quarters of an inch, but I didn’t leave any gap between the two layers. This way the sign is mounted and stands off from the wall versus having a gap between the back and the front layer. Hopefully that makes sense
