Handwriting engraving

A couple of people have asked me how I engrave a piece using a client's own handwriting. It's a fairly simple procedure. First of all I ask for a digital photo of the message written in their handwriting. I then clean up the the image, sharpen the script, scale it to fit the piece and create a mirror image of the message in Photoshop. I can then print this out and iron the message on to my flat piece of metal before it's formed into a ring using a common household iron. Then it's just a case of carefully engraving over the script.
