scubababe Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 After a number of reported thefts and conversations on options for security marking I thought I would have a go Tools needed: Roll of sticky tape, metal stencil (£2.05 from EBay) & solder iron (£17.48 B & Q) DSC_0019 by skubababe, on Flickr Sellotape the stencil to the place you want to mark and carefully etch your design taking care NOT to go to deep. DSC_0018 by skubababe, on Flickr and voila!!! DSC_0016 by skubababe, on Flickr DSC_0014 by skubababe, on Flickr My Omlet is now uniquely security marked with a permanent design which is highly visible. If anyone steals my Omlet they will now have great difficulty selling it or using it without someone noticing the markings. I have marked the doors & shell so they can't even replace parts!!
