Material Resource Help Needed

Do you know those little “brass” plates that come on trophies? The ones with your name engraved (or printed) on them?

I need a wholesale source for just the plaques. No trophy, no engraving, no printing, just the plate and maybe the tape to stick to something.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Hi Mark, I use to cut custom sized “brass” plates on a small guillotine several years ago for shopping mall directory and signage shop. The guillotine was just like the one used for paper cutting. I don’t recall if it was specific to cut metal, but it was very simple to use.

I’m sorry I do not have any information about purchasing one or the small sheets of metal we use to cut, but I do recall that the owner had made some purchase orders through a local trophy shop. You might try asking your nearest trophy shop about how you might purchase the material ready made or in bulk that you are looking for.

Thanks for the input. I guess what I really needed was what to call the stuff. Now that I know that it is engravers brass I can learn all kinds of information.

Thanks.
