Hi guys, do any of you engrave your pens? I'd like to be able to engrave my pens and would be interested to know the types of techniques and tools to do this?

Many thanks
Dougie

If you search the forum Dougie for engraving you will find a few posts on the subject.

However if you want to do laser engraving then IMHO a little NEJE type laser with a rotary attachment is the best way to go.

They are a diode laser rather than a Co2 type, nice and simple to use and set up and work very effectively.

Hope that helps.
