I am hoping not to accumulate any more pieces. This mistake was because I inverted the image in Corel because it didn't look right. I was silly mistake on my part and will not do it again.

If it weren't for accumualated "goofs" where do you think people would get their showroom displays? :B

Brian,
One of these days, when you get enough pieces, bring them out.
We can play golf, while you're waiting for the repair. :-)

Do not take this the wrong way Brian but I had to laugh out loud when I read this - because I always tell myself the same thing - I say to myself -
"That was dumb - I will never do that again" - sometimes it works sometimes it does not. On the acrylics more than once I have engraved without flipping the image before engraving on the back.
Last year at the ARA show I bought some new acrylics from an acrylic company and when they sent them they include several samples already engraved for use as display - 2 or 3 of them were engraved without inverting the image. So we are not the only ones who have made this mistake.
Misery loves company!! :P
Are you coming to LV this year??

I would love to come to Vegas.........but I just had to have a new camera and a complete living room makeover.
I haven't been out there in a while and every year I say this is the year. I would like to meet everyone..........maybe next year! :O)
