Sounds like a specialised job mate, try asking one of the local funeral directors, they can be very understanding

Re: does anyone know someone who engraves ?
not looking for a job on the side, just someone who will do it for a reasonable price, thats all - and I did think of a funeral directors but I thought they would charge a small fortune.
I have no shortage of granite (perk of the job) so its not like that has to be gotten. just the engraving required. |

Re: does anyone know someone who engraves ?
What you are looking for then is a monumental mason not a funeral director. Hillside memorials?

Re: does anyone know someone who engraves ?
always ask to see some of their work mate,especially if yer having the letters painted or owt, some cowboys engrave too shallow, n it wears off with weather in a few years,trust me on that.
