breakage isnt that bad, but tempered glass is an issue. if ya go too deep, it will break. regular annealed glass is just fine.

Yeah, vehicle glass is touchy stuff. I actually had a door glass blow up once sitting in the bed of my truck. It was for a customer vehicle and I had it waiting to put it in and the sunlight was enough somehow.

Anyway, that's great work. What types of equip you gotta get for that? Got pics of some of your equip?

Thumbs up etching
That's some great art work.
I will have to do a little research ,I know i've seen a type of light that you put into a frame then frame the etching and it makes the etched part of the glass light up.
