Cool gift idea!

While i was in camerahouse morley getting some pics developed i looked over and noticed these crystals. They laser etch your pic into the crystal immortalize the picture for good!

Well i thout it would be great to get the best fishing achivement in my life put onto stone.
"The mighty landbased sailfish catch off steep point when i was 17"
That will have to be the capture of my life.

I was a bit skeptical on how detailed it would come out but when i received it i was totally happy!!!!!

Came in a great box and the detail was great!!!!

Paid a extra $25 for the light base for it to sit on and light it up.
Over all worth every cent!!!

Total price $150 for the laser etched crystal ,$10 for the wording to be put on there. $25 for light base!

See pics below.....

"This is going straight to the bar"

Very flash.

Is is etched on the outside surface Marc?  The light really sets off the picture.

I bought a crystal for the young one last year that had a 3D fairy in the middle of it.  Again the detail is fantastic.

Cheers Pete

ps  Wonder if the laser is capable of etching blowies....as that is all Tony H can catch, he could get one of these for chrissy.
