This summer has been pretty busy. Here's a small sampling of some of the projects I've completed. Quite a few more in progress, and some I can't disclose yet.

Included in the pictures are a bunch of Colts (1911's, Python etc...), a S&W, Rolex watch for made worn, some vintage logos on bike parts...

Did you have to remove the sideplate and barell prior to engraving ?
You have some really nice patterns in your goodie bag.

Which one? The two double action guns were engraved barrel on. I try to disassemble as much as possible provided it doesn't become a hassle to put it back together. Also, I will design the work to make it easier to engrave based on how assembled the item is.

Thank you for the compliment.

it looked like you had designed the model .357 to be engraved intact, but I didn't want to put words in your mouth.
Thanks Bert.

All of your work is danged good, but I'm really liking that "Custom Shop" framing of the pistol.

Thanks! I actually did two of these exactly the same. I keep smoke pulls of every job I do with details about it. That lets me study my old stuff, refer back to it for me ideas or make a copy.

One more

Here's one more. A colt gold cup trophy in bright stainless. Full coverage on the slide flats and top, remained of the gun is about 3/4 cover. I took these pics and added some additional work to the dust cover portion of the slide as I felt it looked bare in relationship to the rest of the pistol.

This is my version of interlocking American scroll executed in a production grade of shading.

Thought I'd add these great looking pictures of the gold cup trophy all together
