That is a really good handout!!!!!!!!!! Didn't read the whole thing yet but it seems to answer all my questions and then some. All kinds of possibilities. I have the handout, I took a week long class an I’m still tweaking. Ask questions if you’d like an I’ll try to answer them.

melhill1659 thanks for the answers and a big thank you for the workshop handout! I'll be reading it through in the near future.
This has been something I've been interested in but have never pursued.
I really enjoy it. I just have to tear myself away from the design and science of it to put the new plates into use. It gets addictive.

That looks awesome, Mel. Please show us the results when you're done. Which part does the orange represent - the resist part?

That looks awesome, Mel. Please show us the results when you're done. Which part does the orange represent - the resist part? You have 2 basic things going on. The see through part and the color. When it comes off the cutter you take out the vinyl part that you want to etch. It’s your choice. Where the vinyl is it won’t etch. This is really how it looks on my computer before I put it in cut mode.

On the PRINT OUT John uses a different graphics program and cutter so his per say Black and White graphics don’t apply to me.

This set doesn’t look like much yet but I’ve used my etching plates to add different elements to my designs to make a cohesive collection. As we all know the metal work is important but it’s still only a BACK DROP for the stones!!!

Thanks, Mel. That's what I was trying to visualize. which part of the design was going to be the high part and which would be etched away.
