Default Where / How to get metal repro i.d. tags

Is there anyone / any place that can reproduce a metal i.d. tag ? I've got one in fairly good shape and want a couple more for a friend and his mower and for a 2nd. one that I picked up. This tag is metal and stenciled, not stamped. I don't recall seeing anything in the back of GEM nor Antique Power. Any leads ?

If the nameplate is flat with a painted stencil lettering, I would suggest you go to a vinyl sign shop and ask them to make you an adhesive backed mask. Peal off the part you want to paint (letters or background). This may not work if letters are very small. If the plate has raised letters, it is etched and that can be done fairly easily by anyone. I just did my first brass nameplate tonight and it turned out great.

Hi Marty,

Check with Bill Lopoulos. He is one of the sponsering advertisers on this site. He deals in magneto parts and repairs plus he carries an extensive line of nametags. Check out his offerings at www.magnetoparts.com you will be surprised!
