Re: new 4 inch metal plates from BMS

HI! I ordered some slates from MArtin to try them out and as I had spare few quid on paypal so i decided to get those new metal plates with inserts. I have only small ones as they cheap but I thought i give them a go and see how they look like. I must say those small 4" plates look more like ashtrays but I must say I am amazed with finished product. For such a small price of blank you can get descent looking gift for someone. only one down side of this product is additional inserts. it cost £1.14 just for the insert so is bit to much if you ask me for little round piece of alluminium but hey hoo! one is already included in price of plate £2.34 so lets hope we not going to make any mistakes and dontneed any extra inserts :)

any way... here is photo of one i just did as a sample! I think it will be great addition to my photography offer.

Looking good Paul. The larger 10" versions look cool as well. Without the printed insert they look like small trays.
What type of double sided tape did you use to stick it on?
