Thanks, Tony 🙂
Hadn’t thought of manual engravers, but I have previously chased around for folks with laser cutters, and have seen the layered material which you mention. I’d only thought of it for placards. You could get the rounded shape to make it really authentic – looking. Using that for the instruments themselves would certainly be more robust than my prints!
I’ve asked a firm to give me a quote.
Visited the tip today, and found a few sheets of aircraft aluminium! Looks like it came from a light model that had been damaged. Hope that I can incorporate them into my project.
