Hi Yaqoob,

> I got it done - one thro laser & another thro carpenter.
> For laser (if you have the facility in your town, you have to give them a coral-draw file of the design)
Good Luck / Cheers

If you plan to do it yourself, practice a LOT on dummy pieces of wood first before you do the stock itself. Please keep the rest of us posted on how it goes.

Also, looks like you would be better served partnering with Brihacharan and use his method. Also, my suggestion would be to find the shops that make the kashmiri style furniture, display cases etc...
