Looking to do some engraving for fun.
Probably pick up 10 or so. Best I've seen is $150 for 5. Pic for attention.  Attached File Attached File |

Tactical machining had them for about $30 ea in recent emails.
ETA 299.99 for a 10 pack. ETA math is hard. Same as the deal you said

Gorilla Machining runs sales a lot. I got some two ago for little less than $30 each. They were already on sale, then the more you buy, the cheaper the price was. Also free shipping after certain amount. I got 6 to my door for less then $180 They are pretty nice other than they are Fire and Safe marked which I don't like.

Not as cool as a laser to etch your roll marks, but this place still shows the mattel masking film in his lineup. He might do colt, if you ask. I guess they became litigious over use of their logo.
http://www.dogfightink.com/80percentlowersmarkings.html I prefer the 1969+ logo. I am temped to get one of the Xtool lasers. They come with a 10 or 20W head, but now they have an upgrade to 40W. |
