    coaster

    bad photo but this is something ive made recently and thought it was a nice idea... simple 2 sheets of acrylic with some nice brass rivets to hold it all together.

    It's most certainly different. Did you consider enhancing the engraving by rubbing white acrylic paint into it and then polishing it off (basically infilling). That would make it stand out even more.
