haha skip, nicely done...
however, fine sandpaper aint that easy to get from school, the very fine ones are in storage..
but find the teacher at a VERY busy time, and ask if you can go grab one for your latest project. you'll be fine

well thats how it is here... humm
the jewel... does having it clear give it a cool look? i thought it would look ugly w/ no lights..

ive heard that if you use a product like "Brass-O" a product that one uses to polish brass items will rub the green right off with out those light "foggy" look to it

Mine is cracked......anyone can sudjest a glue that will not only hold.....but not seen aswell

$25, no way... check this site, jewels for $3.99 >>>Decal Girl.
this one might help too >>>Game Console Skins.
there were also a few hits on ebay, but shipping is deep... >>>Ebay.

good luck.

yeah decal girl has it all.

i wanted to go for the official look too, i really like the xbox log printed on the jewel. so even with the crack in mine, im gonna sand and frost it and install lights. i have a feeling the crack wont look too bad after the whole thing is completed.

holy cow, decalgirl is cheap as BEEP
i want to actually get somethin..
this caught my eye
Code:
http://www.decalgirl.com/browse.cfm/4,1761.htm
The 12 piece plus a controller....
and a Jewel
Code:
http://www.decalgirl.com/browse.cfm/4,2071.htm

it'll look nice and pretty cheap too a small $19.49
but uhm..
the jewels, they are just skins arent they? they just go over actual jewel? or will you have to take the "xbox" jewel off and put this under it?
