mrkeys Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I am getting between 5 and 15 requests for hand engraving on a weekly basis, sometimes I can talk them into an alternative product or machine engraving but instead of turning the rest of it away it would be nice to outsource it to a forum member ? does anyone possess this skill? And would you like to do contract jobs for me regular so we can both make a buck or 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
