Reliable way or person to engrave/mark text on Kirinite.

[J.Louie]

I'm looking for a knowledgeable person to laser engrave/mark text on Kirinite. Would like silver engraving on red and black blank color. Located in southern NM. Approximately 70- 80 pens total. 20 at a time. Hoping this is right forum for this inquiry. Can't buy one to justify expense/ usage unless great price for small business.

I have known John for some time--this request is legit--any help would be appreciated, I suggested IAP members might be able to help him.

Hello John, your best bet would be to find a trophy shop in your area with a quality laser engraver. Take them a couple of pieces of turned and polished kirinite to engrave so they can get the settings right. The silver would just be a color fill. Any engraver who has been in business very long will know how to do what you need.
Best of luck and congrats on the large order

Hi showcases, That's exactly what I have done so far. The problem is that he is way out to even try it on his laser. Thanks for the positive response.

I Googled El Paso engravers and this place showed up. Give them a call. You could Fedex the pen part that needs to be engraved.

John; Ken Nelson at Kallenshaan's Woods Does excellent engraving work. I had him engrave the Pledge of Allegiance on the cap of a pen for a friend who became a United States citizen.

Check with a trophy store. Our local store can't engrave on curved surfaces, though.
