I have to replace a cabinet door and wanting to price a custom lighted etched glass door like the yetti’s have only with my own design. I know there was a booth at the st Paul ice show with stuff like this but I can’t seem to find anything on it. I also thought I seen something on the Minnesota ice fishing facebook page also but I can’t find that either. So after 3 weeks of empty searches, does anyone know where I could look for something like this?

E-mail Yetti and ask who makes them?
Did that. Haven’t heard back yet.
July 17, 2020 at 10:00 pm #1958091Find a company near you with a laser engraver. Should be able to do it really easy with plexiglass. Some places can etch glass if they have the right laser.
Otherwise if its a pretty simple design I’ve drawn what I wanted on a vinyl sticker and cut out the areas to be etched and lightly sandblasted the areas. Worked well just need to be careful not to blast the vinyl away and don’t go through glass.

I found a couple that are within an hour so I left messages for them. We will see what they charge before I attempt it myself. Thanks Munchy!

Works perfectly. My cabinet doors all are inset black diamond plate so this kept the same design.
