Tammy and her tree of glass.

[Jeff]

Harold, what you are seeing is the shadow the etching casts inside the cabinet. The etching may not be as prominent as I would have liked, but I tell ya what it casts an awesome shadow of the tree. I was playing with the flashlight a few minutes ago and was putting an 8 foot perfect tree on the wall.

That's way  8) 8) guys!  Super good job!!

[Fla._Deadheader]

  OK. I had to get in close to the monitor. The eyes are going the same way as the brain, downhill.  I was comparing the door to the piece Tammy was cutting out, and it looked like the drooping limb on the right was further toward the ground.

  Still, nice job. ;D

Sure a lot of talent in your household,- artistic, as well as craftsmanship.  Very nice.

That would be a wonderful addition to any kitchen Jeff. It is truly beautiful. I noticed the shadow in the background. It has a nice effect. Thanks for sharing with us.

[Patty]

WOW!     What a beautiful door! You guys are such a talent. The kitchen is coming along nicely, I must say. It's alot of hard work, but in your case it certainly pays off. Good job.

[Bill_B]

Nice Job. You will enjoy it so much when you are done.

I have no information or any idea.

That is one awesome looking etch. Be nice to have a high resolution picture of the whole thing as a file download

"do you have any informtion on how these polycarbonates

It´s a big difference between glass and plastic materials. F. ex. if you clean  polycarbonate with thinner it´ll be full of small fissures. I get that surprise  when I made a rollerblade for my son ;D

Both materials is good for blasting. When blasting glass aluminium oxide ( grey powder) gives the best result. You get a velvety surface.
I know most about glass but not etching. For a durable  painting on glass you have to heat it to more than 400* Celcius!

Swede. *overwhelmed waching what people are making to their kitchens*

[Jeff]

Well, its close enough to call DONE! Thank goodness. Now I'm going to tear into my office area soI got room to hang my new forestry forum clock that Shop Teacher made me. Its really cool, but I'll save that for later. I got a bunch of stuff to thank him for...

Heres a picture of Tammy's new kitchen. It really was pretty fun for us. We did all the work ourselves, from electrical to plumbing and gas to all the drywall and carpentry. The only thing we did not do is install the counter tops.

[shopteacher]

That is one sharp looking kitchen Jeff.  Seeing as how you'll probably want to spend more time there you might have to add a rec room with all the workout equipment next.  Ok Tammy count out those push up for him 1-2-3.................

[Furby]

Jeff, I was just wondering, since you did such an outstanding job on your kitchen........would you mind doing mine? ;D
I'll give you a head start, you can start from scratch.  ;) ;)

[Jeff]

Sure, do you want an estimate or do you just want to give me 75% down and let me get started?

[Patty]

Jeff & Tammy, your kitchen turned out just beautiful!   8)   Makes you feel good when you can look at a job well done.
Can't wait to see it, and you guys, this summer at the picnic.

[Furby]

 :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Budget constraints require use of as much "found in natural state" materials as possible.  
What's your estimate on grinding some "natural state" granite for counter tops?  ;D
How about full log cabinets?  ;) ;)
