the mill was used to make a template (grid) and the sharpened hollow needle was used to punch the holes through the grid template and into the sticker.
a laser cutting tool may work, but will it melt the sticker? |

I'm set up to try a laser cutting tool. I created the hole pattern in Visio, and a guy in the shop duplicated it in SolidWorks. I burned a sample in plain mylar, and it came out pretty well. It needs to be scaled down a bit to be perfect, but that's trivial. I expect to get back to it and try an actual sticker in the next few weeks. Here's the image I ended up with in Visio-

Number of downloads: 211The sticker is a scan (.jpg) that I imported into Visio. My car is red, BTW, so I made the dots and the background red. Once I get to it, I'll post the finished sticker. Probably in the next few weeks. |
