I am building yet another system and I was wondering if anyone has ever used 3D wall tiles or a cool natural rock looking back splash sheet to cover their stand? I am going with a T slot stand with removable panels and was thinking it would be cool to dress the panels in something with depth or texture rather than just a paint or stained finish. Pics would be awesome!
 
I had bookmarked these 2 from other threads here but have unfortunately lost their sources…

By far my favorites but not my own work.
 
Yep something like that. I bookmarked a few products I found to maybe try
That first image I found on Home Depot’s website. In the end I decided that on my size stand (4’ x 3’) I did not want to invest the time and energy into smoothing the seams between tiles such as these. Maybe if I ever re-skin my stand I will go for something more labor intensive and interesting. Be sure to post pix of what you come up with!
 
I have a wall with 3D tile 12x10. It is paintable and fairly easy to use. The trick is if there are odd sizes and you split the panel other than the ends it looks odd with air space.

Currently using a tile on a stand redo. Working on the door situation at the moment. I will post pics of the finished product. Lots of tile options and some are 3D without the airspace when you cut it.
