Name Plaques

[martynfaller]

Hi everyone.

I see some really nice name plaques on some of the work shown here I wondered If anyone has advice or recommendations for where to get plaques from, presume they are made to order, or even on doing your own.

Any suppliers in the UK would be of particular interest.

Many thanks

Martyn

Here in Canada, I go to my local trophy shop. For fig bases I buy trophy bases without the topworks and they are really inexpensive. They engrave name plates for me as well. I imagine you have something simular in Shropshire? Check them out as you have a multitude of fonts and colours etc. you can use.

For. My own figures I have done "plaques" in a computer program and have printed them in colour and heavy duty photo paper. I then overspray with several coats of varnish, cut and affix to the base.
