Bear2 calling Bear1.......what had you in mind for a process?...the other guy was getting the lettering laser etched, and it looked very good in the photos!

I am sure there are lots of people on here who still are interested in doing this, and there must be people with visible etching guns, or photographs, that could help out. It is a real shame about losing the info by Catlover (the person who was a banned member), but maybe we can start again on here with a clean cylinder, sorry sheet

I have a link to Catlover's etching photos which I can post on this thread if Gareth is OK with it?

The photos are still available:

There is a function on his picture hosting site whereby you can contact the poster, so if you wanted to follow up with him, you could maybe do it that way.

I hope he is because I just did it prior to seeing your post!

Sorry if I've cocked up Gareth feel free to delete the link if you think its inappropriate.

Edit: Removed the link myself, pending your response to Garvin above, Gareth.

Sorry, but it is a resounding no, and protracted comms/posts etc regarding the same can not be entered into unfortunately, for fear of evoking the wrath of the dreaded thread zap button.
