Wherever possible we strive for zero waste to the landfill through recycling, protecting Mother Earth for our enjoyment as well as preserving it for future generations. We recycle as much of our shipping & packaging as we can when feasible.
Thank you for shopping with us.
How it’s Made
We purchase our engraving stock in large sheets and in large quantities, doing this allows us to get it at a better price that we then pass the savings on to you, in addition it reduces shipping cost and transportation related pollution. Orders are sorted by product and color then typeset on a computer with graphic software. Proofs for each job are e-mailed [ slower processing ], or texted [ faster processing ], then placed on the "pending shelf" awaiting your approval or instructions with changes, [ If we do not receive a response after 24 hours, we try again ]. Once approved, orders are then grouped together based on material type and color, this saves time and energy that would be wasted from idle equipment caused by processing small batches. These materials are designed to be durable in there classifications of indoor or outdoor durability. For the engraving processes we choose 1 of our 3 laser engravers based on job size and material criteria. Each batch is then inspected for quality and each plate is hand cut using a 1940's "foot stomp" shear. [ With a combined work experience of greater than 90 years, we still have all our fingers :-) ]. Pieces needing holes for screws are then punched one at a time with a hand operated punch, otherwise an adhesive strip of 3M brand quality adhesive is cut from the roll with scissors and attached to the back of the plate. Another quantity inspection is again preformed. Items are then carefully wrapped in repurposed shipping material to help protected from what the Postal Service's automated sorting equipment is capable of abusing or destroying.
We stand behind our work with pride and craftsmanship.
Thank you for your business.
Shop Policies
We require you to "OK" a proof before production. For fast service please include a cell number for proofing, it avoids delays caused by playing email "tag",
5 percent of the proofing emails we send never reach our customer, that results in a 24 hour delay waiting on your approval or corrections before we try to contact you again.
Since these items are custom, no returns. If you have issues, please contact us to work out a solution,
We will make the layout as you ordered it, if we feel that it will look better another way, we will offer that proof as well for you to choose.
Proofing is a photo of our computer screen, it is not a mock-up or likeness of the product, what is black in the proof is what will be engraved.
Make changes until you are happy.
Providing a cell number will be like you have your personal engraver, we can make changes and suggestions with you in "Live" time.
With e-mail - we proof - you respond at some time - at some time we check our email, make changes, send again - you respond at some time.....
I have seen this take a few days of "email tag".
But if you are not comfortable providing us your number, I understand. I am concerned that that "Game" app you have might be spying on you and will send our number to spammers... we all love that...
Thank you for your business.
