Default A bit of shed art to hang on the wall.

I had a bit of spare time on the weekend so i drew this up on autocad and had our profile cutter cut it out today, doesnt look to bad in the raw, but i think i will paint it up and maybe put some white plastic behind it, with a light bulb.

Its just cut out of some 1.6mm mild steel scrap sheet that we had lying around, its about 750mm in diameter, but I could cut one out up to 3 meters diameter on our profile cutter.
Wasn't really thinking about selling them, I have decided to paint this one, but might cut another one out of stainless.

Very nice indeed! Might look cool if you mounted a string of LED's around the back and mounted it to a wall with spacers to clear the LED's.

if anyone wants a copy of the dxf file let me know.
if you have profile or laser cutter near by, they can cut one out for you.

What was the font you used for the word Cobra? It looks sort of like Eurostyle.
