CotswoldEngraver Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Does anyone know where i can get a small stake for a brass plate for a memorial plaque. Don't want anything as big as a tree stake, customer wants approx 4" x 4" plate with a stake to put in the ground but not sure where to get a stake from. Doesnt matter what the stake is made from as long as it's metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDY Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 if it's going on a wood mount, you could use a length of 3mm aluminium maybe 2.5" wide with a few holes at the top to fix to the rear of the mount, then put it in a vice and put a bend at the top like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
