They will never skate this town again!8)

damn that is such a let down. if you cant trust your friends, then who can you trust. hope they get what they deserve. that was grand theft. sadly with todays system, they will have the records sealed after the sentence has been served, and they pay the $120 fine to close them. they they will look as clean as a whistle, even it they are still trash on the inside.

^^^ and i have nice things, they are just always in my house, or locked up in my truck. i also engraved my cindrich with my name and contact info... so if someone steals it, they have to basically mare it to loose its identity.

Engravings not such a bad idea, even for wood.
Sorry to hear about that Big Daddy. It sucks when its someone you trust.

yeah, you could do it yourself, or have your local jeweler do it. i know my old college the cops (we had real police as campus cops, though they were the nicest ppl i knew) would lend you their engraving stuff so you could do that. so check with your college and see. also check out your art department if your in school. they may have to tools.

i dont know how well it would work for wood. it would need to be deep for that, at lease a couple of layers otherwise it could be sanded. even then it could be sanded and filled, then refinished.

just make sure it in an obvious spot, not blocked by the trucks, or tape. you want it to be seen, so that it is easily identifiable as yours.

I know Wells,... I was talking about my own stuff.
Too late for Zak, but he doesnt need to really engrave his name on it,.... its already printed on right?

They will never get a clean record they also stole my 357mag... that is a fed crime and instant jail time... Gun laws are serious

no easy off for these punks.
