This item was a custom order for a client who's brother is a Hotshot firefighter. He wanted to give him something special for his upcoming birthday. He wanted the plaque to reflect a forest fire. We cut the plaque with our CNC router and then burned it just enough to give the right effect, then sealed it and carved a keyhole hanger in the back. It's always fun to make custom items because of the individuality and special thought that goes into them from the gift giver.

For Family Name PlaqueI was looking for something special for my sister and her husband's 25th wedding anniversary … I had "something" in my mind and through email exchanges the Palmer's were able to create a beautiful gift for my my sister's anniversary … in addition, they were able to get it done in a rather short timeframe … the name plaque is lovely!!

For Scottish targe with etched coat of armsI had a project for a Targe (Scottish shield). Throughout the progression of its being made, I was sent pictures and sketches to make sure the Targe looked the way I wanted it to look. The end product was excellent, definitely no complaints here!
