Kind of a "No, I don't get laid!" sign...

If you take the time to actually look at the project, you'd see that it's very well put together. Granted, it's tacky, but he's got two sheets of glass (did you even question how he got two colors?) evenly illuminated pretty much invisibly. And he did the engraving by hand.

Isn't this website sorta dedicated to cheap ass home brew projects? Anyhow, thats pretty freaking cool I think.

I wonder if these critics have actually put in the time to make anything creative at the level that has been commited to here. I would speculate this to be unlikely, as experience would more naturally ellicit something more relative about the work, than comments reflecting their specific current social/ cultural mindset or tastes.

I too think it is pretty cool, and apreciate the effort gone in to producing this, even though the creation is specific to the creators interests, which are not my own.
To the creator, i say, keep creating what you love to create.

We do high-definition etching and have tried to come with something similar for a number of years and this guy has done a great job. I am not sure how he did the lights in the door, but my hat is off to him.

visit www.mastervisions.com to see what we do. We would love to take this idea and light up some of our images.

cheers,
Mark
