Do you have a memorable hunt or shot you want to remember? We have just the service you have been
looking for. Whether it is a first time
hunter that shoots their first deer, maybe you took your biggest trophy and
want a great way to commemorate the moment, or maybe it was a winning shot at a
competition, our craftsmen have you covered. We start with the fired brass casing you send in to us, we offer the option to hand polish it to a bright shiny finish. From there we then engrave the
shell with our extremely precise laser that creates a beautiful black high contrast
engraving on the shell casing that will not wear off or fade over time. The result is a beautiful keepsake that will
remind of you the special moment forever.
If you are having the head mounted attaching the shell to a plaque on
the mount adds that extra special touch.
We all have special reasons to remember each hunt, let us help you
create a special memento you will treasure.
Details
This service is for a single shell to be polished and engraved. The engraving is a permanent etching on the
surface of the brass shell casing. We do not use additives or abrasives,
the marking is done only with the laser for one of the most precise, high
contrast black marks available. You have seen other shells done with
rotary engraving that are hard to see or read because they don’t offer enough
contrast – this is not a problem with our method, the black engraving stands
out clearly on the polished brass shells.
Engraving Details
We have provided examples
showing different lines and text details. The more lines and letters per
line the smaller the text will be, so keep that in mind when planning out your
text. A good recommendation is to put the name and special event on the first
line, followed up with a date on the second line, and if a third line is needed
perhaps adding details about the shot or trophy, such as how many points, or
how far the shot was.
White Glove Service
The white glove service
is our premium service. We will call you and answer all of your questions
and walk you through the process. We also will send you a pre-paid
postage package to return the shell to us so all of the logistics are taken
care of. All you will need to do is put the shells in the provided
packaging and drop the package in your mail box, and we will handle the rest.
Install a Brass Key Ring
If you are wanting to
make something you can put on a key chain, this is for you. We will use
our precision machines to drill a hole in the large end of the shell and
install a polished brass key ring.
Acrylic Shell Display
Stand
We have developed a
beautiful and classy black acrylic stand that will proudly display a single
shell on a shelf, desk, curio cabinet, or any other place you can think
of. This unique stand was designed in house to elevate the engraved shell
in a way that highlights the engraving. The stand ships flat and is
easily assembled with no tools using the directions included.
