UPDATED!! Scroll down for more pictures...Engraved on a Phunnel!!

To Mods: If this thread needs to be moved, go right ahead.

Well, for those who dont know, I work at a Jewelry repair shop where we fix all kinds of Jewelry -and Watches as well-. I can do both, but my specialty is engraving. No one else here in the store can engrave on the machine except for me. So here are some pics of what I was able to do just 1 hour ago. Pics taken from my phone.

















As you can see, I do this to make things personal. That Zippo and that hose tip will be mine forever, no one else can claim it even if I lose em.

I can engrave on almost anything..glass, wood, plastic, metal, ect.

Tomorrow, I am going to try and engrave on one of my broken phunnel s...we'll see how that goes. should be sick if i can pull that off.




Anyone interested in some engraving??

Can you engrave on a non-flat surface? Could you do something on a stem or base? Awesome stuff man...

I am very limited to what I can and cant do. Flat surfaces are highly recommended, but I might be able to pull off an engravement on a non-flat item. This depends on the item itself.

Hookah Bases are completely out of the question. It simply will not fit, or else, it would've been very possibly.

Regarding the stem...that one is tricky as well. Besides not having room for that, the design of it will give me a problem.

Don't worry though, I will test out as many things as I can from my own personal collection to show you guys what can and can't be done.

Keep us updated man, please.


I'd love to get some shit engraved onto my nammor. That way I can be like:

me: hey pass the hose
them: I don't see your name on it
me: yeah your thumb is covering it up.


Lol. Update coming tomorrow.

Nice engraving, I used to work at a jewelry shop back in high school that had an engraving machine. It is no easy task at all, you have to have a very steady hand. I messed up quite a bit. I like your work good job. Do you guys carry the engraving machine that can do engraving on non flat surfaces as well, like glasses and what not?

We can do non-flat surfaces, as long as its not too big you know. We can do glass as well. And Yes, cant make a mistake lol.

Nothing like adding a personal touch to a hookah. I would love to see some custom engraving on some of my parts. Good luck on the phunnel.


Thanks. Will be working on it in a a matter of an hour or two. I will keep this thread updated.
