Case Engraving: Star Wars

Right Side Engraving

I came up with the idea of doing the Dark Side on the right of the case and the Light Side on the left. On the right, I decided to have Boba Fett.


Here you can see the clean and clear lines that the carbon paper makes on the case. A good sketch makes it much easier to work with the Dremel on top.


With Boba Fett done, an evil dude named Darth appears...


Here's the final result. As you can see engraving on black aluminum gives incredible sharp and crisp lines. This also means that mistakes show too - be careful not to make any big ones! Whilst the engraving might look weird up close, it looks great when seen as a whole.
