Mac, actually I know turners that engrave the body, they have to stick
with light colored woods (no walnut), but the results can be excellent.

WAY too much work/skill for me, Ralph..
The last order that I turned down was for 200 pens..

Hello,

Yes, I can engrave pens and pen clips. The pen clips require a
special method/technique to engrave (costs a little bit more than just
engraving the pen bodies). The letters and/or small graphic would
appear black in color on the clip. As for engraving the bodies of the
pens, this can be done too. The lighter colored woods have the best
contrast. The acrylic type pens (depending on the type of material)
will either appear a frosted white color or require coloring filling
to bring out a nice contrasting appearance. Either way, they look
great! As for color filling, I can do this process as well but costs
more. Most customers often just have me engrave the pen bodies and do
the color filling themselves.

I can basically do the engraving in pretty much whatever font you
would like (i.e. Microsoft Windows fonts). Please keep in mind that
some fonts may not look as well when engraved really small.

If you have anymore questions, just let me know. I would be glad to
offer my services to my fellow turners.

Mike DeRegnaucourt
