Hi,
I do both. It really depends what I want to do. For example I had a customer who wanted a series of foot pedal with the insignia of his “club”. had to do something from scratch there -used copper, aged it, then plated it and took off (with a laser engraver) the plating to show the insigna. The need for modification is really restricted, but I…[Read more]

A good example are the Cyclone 360 copies. I know of at least three genuine factories who make the knock offs and a handful of others who claim they are the manufacturer, but they…[Read more]
