markacable Posted 2 February , 2007 Share Posted 2 February , 2007 Mark, I made the plaque using a half-etch in brass.(Sorry, I've got technical!) I work as a modelmaker for an achitect, so I have access to making my own brass etchings. This would be too expensive for a lot of people to consider, but involves making an accurate drawing usually using CAD (computer aided drawing) which is sent to the etchers. Sorry, perks of my job! Regards, Andy Mmmm. So you're telling me I can't knock one up with my Thomas Caxton printing set.... Any idea where I could get one made up?

Dan Morton Posted 2 February , 2007 Share Posted 2 February , 2007 There are online engraver businesses that specialize in making brass titles, etc. This one is in the USA, but probably there are similar ones in Europe, UK, etc. http://www.usbrassshop.com/ All the best, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
