I might give this a shot on this '73 that I'm hacking on. I've got a console that I wanted to get creative with so I grabbed some .032 aluminum and cut a few pieces to play with for gages or maybe an engine monitoring system? Dash? The idea is to do this on the home bench press and to K.I.S.S. I've realized that 5/8" circles aren't my choice. I'll probably use 1.5" or 1.25. The final blank will be polished before the circles are set, to maintain uniformity. I might play with a black die to tinge it before a clear coat as an after thought. In two of the pics I think you can see that I staggered the spacing. It makes a neat visual effect where the two meet. BTW, this was free hand on one plane. Currently at the "Farting around in the garage, again" stage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) Or maybe my cam will come early and I'll say "Screw this nonsense; I'm putting my engine together."
