Decided to put an old cad file to use and had a pair of these cut. One is being sold to a guy on another forum and one is going on my wall.

For mine, ill be making some standoffs and cutting a piece of plexi that extends just a tad past the edge of the aluminium, which will be sandblasted and lit from behind in green since the tracks nickname is “the green hell”

my laser cutter made sure he got me near spotless material, there are some very fine scratck marks from the cardboard but really they blend right in unless you look for them

I feel like you had a lot of opportunity to do more with that. IDK what, but it looks like a blob on the wall. Even if you know what it is I don’t think it’s very aesthetic…

I would have had the name of the track cut out in the middle of it since there is so much material/room there

10

it’d be sweet if you could outline the track with a fiber optic cable and then pulse a light through it like a car going around the track.

Waiting to see what you have in might with the plexi. should help it look like like a blob.

lol

+1. It’s a cool idea, but the execution needs some work.

13

^^

Agreed.

Would be nice if you just cut out the center, maybe leaving ~.5 inch width?

Cool work, but IMO it needs to be center cut so you can tell it’s a track. To the average person it just looks like a hunk of metal on the wall.

You can buy this for $200:

“what country is that?”

16

lol

17

Agreed. Hell, to someone that knows what it is, it still looks like a hunk of metal on the wall, and having green sandblasted edge material won’t hide the girth.

I suppose you could add a clock mechanism to the center and break it up some.

…or a picture of Sabine.

So you made a big cum stain out of aluminum?

Great work :tup:
