You may think engraving/customizing gadgets may be too time consuming; however, since many of gadgets are all uniform in size, operators can save time and energy by engraving the same design on multiple pieces and then customizing with names or initials as needed.
The graphic above shows several iPod Nanos, all being set up for the same design. These could be engraved all at once and then customized further (on the back of the device) on an as-needed basis.
Utilizing templates is a great way to save time and energy while engraving multiple items. The screenshot below illustrates various Nano templates incorporated into the same engraving job. Once the template is created, it’s much easier to incorporate and manipulate artwork to fit the engraving area.
