StevenB Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Does anyone on here have any experience or has worked with U-marqinside ring engraver attachment for Gem RX4. No, but I have it on the universal & it can't be too different. Is it easy to set up? Yes is it worth the investment? Unless you're a jeweller, it won't be a get rich quick scheme, however it's a great service to be able to offer. And just think, once you've engraved the wedding rings, just think how many other wedding related items you could sell & engrave for the happy couple does anyone have one for sale, No Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 I've been asked about this a couple of times recently and wondered whether to buy the attachment for my universal. What sort of price do you charge for this service, don't want another "key cloning" scenario where I splash out on the equipment and no one wants to pay for the service!!

StevenB Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 £25 flat rate for inside ring engraving for me. Bangles can be more of a problem. Rarely are they sturdy enough to allow them to be clamped tightly enough that they don't move in the jigs. I learnt this the hard way! Cheap crappy argos rubbish...

Michael Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Is that per ring and however many letters they want? If so that's not too bad, may get some takers at that sort of price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenB Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Yes, per ring, irrrespective of what's engraved. I decided that due to the limitations of the size of rings, you'd never get too much engraved on it, so not worth messing around with a variable price dependant on lettering. And anyway, most of the time involved it in the set up of the job, so whether it's just 2 initials or a longer message, it'll take the same amount of time to do.
