I will be staying close
to
home through the end of the year, catching up on full engraving jobs
which I had fell behind on while dealing with my mom and dad
over the last year. Thank you all for your prayers and patience ! I am
back in full swing and enjoying my time in the shop and finishing
restoration of our house. I hope the fall season is as wonderful in
your part of the world as it is here in the Ozarks ! Come visit me if I'm in your part of the country! See my SHOWS page for locations. |

Thank you for
visiting!! I hope this site will help make you familiar with my
work and me (as much as that is possible to
do in this electronic medium). I find that the web and e-mail are
fine for initial contacts, but by the time you have decided to have me
engrave for you, personal contact is a must, either by phone or face to
face at one of the many shows I do.
I have
been engraving, full time, since 1979, beginning with Scrimshaw
(The Art of Engraving on Ivory). I learned to make silver and
gold jewelry so as to mount my scrimshaw and soon began hand engraving
jewelry. I progressed into knife engraving
(which is still a large part of the work I do), perfecting my engraving
skills until the time I cut my first gun in 1988. Since then I have
engraved an average of 50 guns and dozens of custom knives a year. P.S. I am a member of
The Firearms Engravers Guild of America and work extensively
