Two friends and I started a 4k square foot artist studio and maker space called Hex House back in Brooklyn.

We are around 1.5 years old, and there is always something that needs improvement.
For one: our door.
Lots of times people are confused or scared that they came to the wrong place & they go to our neighbor's slightly more welcoming door and will ring his doorbell:
He hated that.
So I decided to make a sign for our door and take it back with me next time I visit.
I wanted to make it in the style I created for Hex House, which is this stippled black and white style.
As you can see that there is high contrast on the houses. I wanted to create that effect,
so I bought some holographic magnetic powder to put in clear resin.
then I designed my sign in fusion 360
I had to do it twice because the first time the job came out to 48 hours
Then I milled, it took a little less than two hours:

I did this so the sides would be more smooth
then I casted using bio-based entropoy resin
The magnet in the speaker is pulling the metalic glitter forward
then I had to break the mold, Its okay because I only want one sign but next time I wont mill the mold
sanded the hell out of it
then I polished it
then I glued it to some acrylic
I took it with me next time I visited and drilled it to the door with metal screws
