DESCRIPTION OF ENGRAVING , AMOUNTS AND COST.
I USE BOTH HAMMER AND CHISEL, AND THE NEW GRAVER MAX MACHINE WHICH IS SIMPLY AN AIR POWERED HAMMER AND CHISEL.
AMOUNTS OF ENGRAVING:
A-ENGRAVING APPLIES A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TASTEFUL ENGRAVING TO THE SIDES OF A HAND GUN OR LONG GUN . (SEE ENCLOSED PHOTO) THE COST OF A-ENGRAVING IS $600.00.
B-ENGRAVING INCLUDES A LOT MORE SCROLL ENGRAVING ON THE SIDES OF THE FIREARM , TOP OF THE FIREARM, TRIGGER GUARD, BOTTOM OF THE FRAME AND LARGER PORTIONS ON THE BARREL. THE COST OF B-ENGRAVING IS $1200.00. (SEE PHOTO)
C-ENGRAVING IS MUCH MORE EXTENSIVE THAN B-ENGRAVING YET GOES MUCH FARTHER AND GIVES BACKGROUND WORK TO ALL OF THE BACKGROUND AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTO OF THE RUGER RED HAWK (ENCLOSED). THE COST OF C-ENGRAVING IS $2000.00.
D-ENGRAVING APPLIES ENGRAVING TO ALL VISIBLE PARTS OF THE FRAME OR RECEIVER . ON A HANDGUN THIS INCLUDES TOTAL COVERAGE ON THE BARRELL UP TO 6 INCHES. (SEE PHOTO OF RUGER #1 WITH GOLD INLAYED ELEPHANT) THE PHOTO ENCLOSED SHOWES D-ENGRAVING WITH RELIEVED BACKGROUND. IF THIS WERE ONLY STIPPLED THE COST WOULD BE $3000.00, BUT SINCE THIS IS RELIEVED THE COST OF RELIEVED D-ENGRAVING IS $9,000.00.
GAME SCENES ARE AN ADDITIONAL $400.00 PER SCENE.
RELIEF WORK IS THE REMOVING OF THE BACKGROUND AND STIPPLING IT (AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTO MARKED D). THE ABOVE PRICES DO NOT INCLUDE RELIEF WORK. IF YOU DESIRE THE SCROLL BACKGROUND RELIEVED TRIPPLE THE COST OF THE ENGRAVING SELECTED . AS DESCRIBED IN D-ENGRAVING.
GOLD INLAYS ARE $500.00 PER ANIMAL OR BIRD. GOLD INLAID LETTERS ARE $50.00 PER LETTER. GOLD BORDERS ARE $40.00 PER INCH. I USE ONLY 24K GOLD.
BLUING THE COST OF PREPERATION AND BLUING A PIECE IS $225.00 (HOT BLUING PROCESS). RUST BLUING A SET OF DOUBLE BARRELS IS $500.00. ALL QUALITY DOUBLES ARE SOFT SOLDERED TOGETHER AND MUST BE RUST BLUED.
ELECTROLESS NICKEL PLATING IS OFTEN APPLIED TO A PIECE AFTER ENGRAVING. THE PIECE IS GIVEN A VERY SOFT BLASTING WITH ULTRA FINE GLASS BEADS THEN PLATED. THE RESULT IS A BEAUTIFUL SATIN FINISH. THE COST OF THIS TYPE OF PLATING IS $300.00. PLATING CAN NOT BE DONE OVER GOLD INLAYS.
SHIPPING, THE BEST WAY TO SHIP A FIREARM IS THROUGH U.P.S. OR FED-EX. WHEN SHIPPING A FIREARM SIMPLY TELL U.P.S. THAT YOU ARE SENDING A FIREARM TO A GUNSMITH FOR SERVICE. MAKE SURE YOU DECLARE THE VALUE FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES. HALF OF THE PAYMENT IS REQUESTED WITH THE FIREARM AND THE BALANCE WHEN THE WORK IS FINISHED. TURN AROUND TIME IS ALWAYS CHANGING SO GIVE ME A CALL. 985-223-0206.
