I laser-engraved a switch plate in an Asteroids theme that turned out pretty sweet IMO. It is a black, composite switch plate that has been laser-engraved and paint-filled with white paint. I love the simplicity of the white lines engraved on the black cover!

I have 2 other light switches in my game room. I'm thinking of designing and laser-engraving more to match... maybe Battlezone and Tempest???

That is very nice. Little things like that give a game room character.

Wonder how well it would work if the white paint was glow in the dark or UV reactive. A few bullets out of the ship would look cool too.
 
If you start to sell these Jon let me know, i would be in for a black Asteroids with black lite graphics! Looks really cool, nice job...
 
Add an illuminated light switch to give it a little glow:

I believe they come in both red and clear.

Wow- thanks guys! I didn't realize that people might want these, I guess I should have though. :)

Hmmm... I'd have to actually see if this is something that can be done on a larger scale. This plate took a long time to burn. I might have to alter the graphics some to cut down on laser time. Let me look into it.

Maybe I can do a series of vector games...

If you do offer these, don't forget about double light switch covers either. :)
