Hello. I am getting married. (yay!) and I haven't given my fiancee her engagement ring yet, but I want to do so in a personalized manner. What I would like to do is to get a nice wooden box (which I have already selected) and personalize for her somehow.
My idea is to have either myself or someone make a J (her initial) out of mokume or high-contrast damscus and attach it to the top of the box. Actually, the more I think about it, I think I'd like to have it coated in resin, so it will never rust or tarnish, it will only need to be about 1" tall, so it should be pretty easy to do.
So, tell me if you'd like to take me up on this offer, and what you think would look best, and your price. thanks.
Also, I don't think I'd like to pay more than $100...BECAUSE.......
I don't remember what David Winston was charging for "the key", but I feel this job will probably take about the same time/costs as that project. If you disagree with that last statement, please let me know. thanks.
