Engraving
4 April, 2014, 01:44
Hello all,
I've been looking at getting a plastic m4 lower engraved/etched with the us gov. trades but not really sure where to take it, or how much it should be costing? Anyone had any plastic parts etched that can give me a recommendation. Got a WE M&P slide that i'd love to get some trades on too, I know timpson do engravings but not too sure how they would get on with the logos, unless they had a milling machine with an engraving bit.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Engraving
I have tried to do this in the past, well searched for anyway... I had a look on youtube and they had had a stencil that you would just spray over it is about £8-£10, just to let you know as an other alternative.

Re: Engraving
Like an airbrush kinda thing? I was thinking about doing a stencil and dusting it in white just for the outlines; but its how to make an accurate stencil?

Re: Engraving
well I have not done this before but I believe that you could just put some white spirit over it and then just cut down on some of the edges

Re: Engraving
Another option is to find a place on eBay or google that does decals and provide them with a design to do in your choice of colour and size, I got a 1.5" x 1" magpul triangle done for about £3.50 for my M4
