hey folks
a few months ago i was crusing though to pictures in this forum and came across someone that had a "MATTEL" engraving on their lower. at the time i thought it was funny and got a chuckel out of it.. and now i can't get it out of my mind. going to do a slab side or a partial fence build next and i really would like to get it engraved with that "Mattel" logo. maybe even go with Mattel Shootin Shell.. can you folks point me in the direction of who did the engraving and how much did it cost?? and did the engraver also do the anodizing? i'm going to use a 80% lower and machining the fences off so it will need to be either painted or anodized afterwards anyway. thanks Pete |

As far as I know, he does not do anodizing. I know of no one that does both engraving and anodizing. (at least not of the people/places that are generally mentioned here in Retro) |

Oh yea - the Mattels...place holder for some of my builds. Heading to church, but will put them up when I return. I had an entire thread on the "Rarest Retros of all" but it went to the archives...
edit - had a few minutes and these were on photobucket - the white is just chalk I was using to fill in the engraving. This is bracemans work.  </a>" />
