NO!!....Absolutely
Not! Chrome plating will Chip and Peel anytime heavy cuts
are made through the surface.
YES !!......Be
sure to Stipulate that you are planning to have your parts plated After Engraving,
so we can make All of our Cuts Deeper to compensate for the Plating Process.
Be Advised......."Chrome Plating Will Fill in Some of the Fine Detail Work that Makes
Our Engraving So Desirable."
This is Probably the Hardest Question of
All to Answer. Each Project is Different and Therefore Pricing Can Vary. As
Most of our Engraving is Comparable to Tattoo Art, Both in Design and Size, it
Would Be Reasonably Safe to Say,"The Price of Engraving Will Be Similar
to that of the Prices in Tattooing." If You
Have your Own Artwork, and Exact Size Line-Drawings, You Will Cut Costs
Considerably........Sometimes by as Much as Half !!
Normal Turnaround
Time Is Usually Within Two Weeks! All Work Is Done On a
First Come------First Served Basis. I Normally
Have a Considerable "Backlog" which Means "It Is Very Important For
Your Parts to Be in My Shop and Ready to be Engraved When Your Appointment Time Comes
Up." If Your Parts Aren't Here and Ready At The Appointed Time
Slot, You Go To The BACK of the LIST! "ABSOLUTELY NO
EXCEPTIONS". Which Very Well Could Mean From Six Months Up to a
Year.....Depending on My Workload At the Time.
The ONLY Parts I Sell, are the
Ones That I Manufacture. At the Present Time, the Only thing I'm Making are
The H-D Point Covers (7075-T6 Alum). I am Not a Dealer Nor a Parts House, It's
up to you to Provide the Parts You want Engraved. Possibly in the Future I May Carry
Some Parts on a Limited Basis.
"THIS IS
IMPORTANT". ALL Parts MUST be sent to us in either a
"POLISHED, ANODIZED, or BEAD BLASTED" condition!! These are the ONLY
THREE WAYS we will accept your parts!! By Polished , we mean Ready for the
Plating Tanks, this goes for ALL NEW parts too, as they usually have a clear powder
coating over the polished surface. Please CONTACT US for
further special instructions concerning your parts before shipping to us.
ABSOLUTELY NO
CHROME parts will be accepted. (Please see the above question regarding Plated Parts)
"ALL"
of My Work is "ONE of a KIND , HAND ENGRAVED, ART WORK"
At the present time we are discussing with a couple of the more Progressive
Shops, along with a few of the countries Finest and Most Respected Builders and Painters,
the possibilities of them carrying my work, "Exclusively" in
their areas. This can Only work to Benefit the owners of the fine custom vehicles
being built, as it will co-ordinate the Building, Painting, and Engraving into the
final design results. As soon as all the little details of these negotiations are
completed, I will announce the Names and Locations of these "SELECT" Dealers
here on this web-site and through our E-Mailing List. We are really looking forward to working with these selected
Shops and Individuals. If you would like to be placed on our mailing lists,
please contact us through this site.
My Policy on doing ANY
CLUB WORK is quite Simple, You must be "WHO" you say you
are, AND "HAVE YOUR PAPERS in ORDER, Because they
WILL BE CHECKED !"
