What we make

Personalized & commemorative

Milestones deserve better than mass production. Engraved gifts, memorial pieces, wedding and event sets, and custom décor, built one at a time and finished by hand.

Glass, hardwood, acrylic, crystal, and metal.

Branded & bulk

Your mark, applied well. Corporate gifting, branded drinkware, client appreciation runs, and merchandise for creators and local businesses. Consistent across one piece or two hundred.

Volume pricing on runs over 25.

Engineering & reproduction

Parts that don't exist anymore, or don't exist yet. Reverse engineering, prototyping, and replacement components produced from measurements, drawings, or the original part in hand.

Automotive, industrial, and one-off restoration.

Objects that do something

We embed NFC chips into the pieces we make. Tap a phone to the object and it opens a website, a menu, a booking page, a playlist, or anything else that lives at a link. The chip is sealed inside during the build, so nothing is stuck on afterward and nothing wears off.

It works in printed parts, hardwood, and layered assemblies. What the tag points to can be changed later without touching the object, which means a piece you hand out this year can point somewhere new next year.

Keychains, table talkers, business cards, display pieces, membership tokens, and event giveaways.

How far this goes

We built TokenTap5e, a tabletop gaming platform where NFC embedded tokens drive a live companion app at the table. Same capability, taken to its limit. It is the reason we know what these chips can and cannot do before we put one in your product.

Deliver

Shipped nationwide, or picked up locally by appointment.

Common questions

How long does a project take?

Most single pieces run one to two weeks from approved proof. Larger runs depend on quantity and materials. If you have a hard deadline, say so in your quote request and we will tell you straight away whether it is possible.

Is there a minimum order?

No. We make single pieces and we make runs of several hundred. Volume pricing starts at 25 units.

What can you work from?

A vector logo is ideal. We can also work from a photo, a sketch on a napkin, a physical part, or a description. If artwork needs to be redrawn for engraving, we will tell you before we start and include it in the quote.

What materials can you engrave?

Glass, crystal, hardwood, acrylic, stone, anodized and coated metals, and most plastics. Photo engraving on glass is possible and looks best from a high contrast source image.

Do you ship?

Yes, nationwide. Local pickup in Madison is available by appointment.

Do you accept purchase orders?

Yes. We invoice on terms for businesses, schools, and municipalities. Custom work generally starts with a deposit covering materials, with the balance due on delivery.
