A little sloppy with my first attempt using an engraver, but turned out ok.
Made this for a very special friend who played a part in saving my life.

If you happen to be in the 'club' you'll know exactly what this is all about.
If not, I'll bet there's a pretty good chance you can relate to it anyway :)

...haven't added to my 'obsessive behavior' thread in awhile. lol

If you look on youtube you'll find a variety of ways to age/antique paper. I've been wanting to give it a shot.
Found and printed a patent drawing off google. I realize it's not old (1989) but I liked the image so I went with it.
Soaked it (both sides) in some strong coffee, roughed up the edges, then put it in the oven (keep a close eye on it!)

Framed and hung in the bathroom behind the toilet. Something nice to look at while I'm taking a leak. lol
