Hello everyone --

    I've been dragging my feet for years with regards to getting a
    Makers Mark perhaps because I'd really just prefer to sign my pieces.
    And in the absence of having one, I've been doing nothing at all for
    much too long. A recent customer has requested that I sign her piece
    - I'm curious what the best way to go about this is. I've toyed with
    the idea of getting one of those little hand held engravers but I
    have a sneaking suspicion that it would shake and vibrate in such a
    way as to make the result very unsatisfying. I suppose I could try to
    do it with a scribe, though of course it wouldn't be deep enough to
    withstand much wear. Does anyone have any suggestions? I know that
    I've seen pieces with beautifully legible signatures on them -- and I
    don't think they were stamped. I feel like this is a very elementary
    question but I simply don't know the answer! 

Thanks in advance for all
your help.
Best, Hilary
