Engraved some mirrors for my granddaughter's dorm room. Put some colored construction paper behind the etchings to give it some color and make it stand out.

    Don Kleinschnitz It is engraved from the back of the mirror. You have to reverse the image. It was done at about 200 mm/sec at 70% power. You have to experiment a bit because not all mirror backing is created equal. The first one I did, I had to go over twice because it did not burn all the material away to the glass.
