Most do it with laser engraving. There are some people on here who do it. You may also be able to find someone locally.

Kallenshaanwoods and Woodturningz both do this. There are a couple of people on this forum who do it too but I don't remember who - at the moment.

If all your looking for is to have a name engraved try your local trophy store.

Did you have a birthday? I thought it was Wooden-Pen-Turner_11?

Or did you just change the name?

It looks like they are 2 people. #12 profile says he is in middle school and friends with #11. Seems like a great way to get into a hobby by doing it with a friend.

Your local trophy shop can probably help or know someone that can. Most shops have a laser engraver and have a minimal charge to engrave a pen.

I use a local laser engraver.
If you choose this method, bring waste, already turned, blanks for them to practice on.
