I am a huge fan of lettering. I've worked under, under one of the last Master Hand Engravers, since I was about 16. He his one of 2 Master Engravers that I know about in this country. You have to check out his work! www.neustaedters.com I have a 4 letter monogram and he designed it SO beautifully. Let me know if you'd like me to e-mail a picture. Machine engraving is so blah in comparison and it SO limited with design. I LOVEd this post! I am a huge fan of lettering.
