I am trying to cut front control panels for electronic equipment out of 1/8" ABS plastic. Actually, cutting out the panels is working great. I would also like to engrave some text and legends into the panels. The material is translucent white, so a nice even, diffused light gets through from behind. What I am trying to do is paint the panel, then engrave the text so that it can be backlit. My problem is that while the upcut bit I use for cutting the plastic works great, it is not meant for engraving. What bit would you suggest for this? I was thinking maybe a 60 degree v-bit, but whatever I get will have to have a 1/4" shank.


Thanks,
