Often we can handle special requests.  Here are some examples.

Left or Right Handed

A right-handed person will generally hold the wood pen or pencil such that the engraving needs to be left of the clip.  A left-handed person will generally hold the wood pen or pencil such that the engraving needs to be right of the clip.  Most people don't think of this when giving pens as gifts, but to give the perfect laser engraved turned pen or pencil gift you should know whether the intended recipient is right-handed or left-handed.

Text That Wraps Around

 In extreme cases text can be written length-wise on the pen in multiple lines.  We can also actually engrave something around the barrel of the pen or pencil, but there are several caveats with doing this.  We cannot at all be reasonably expected to 'make ends meet' going around the barrel of the pen or pencil.  Barrel finished diameters can vary widely and since we are working with such small dimensions and tolerances it is nearly impractical to get this to work from one pen to another.  Also, there just isn't that much surface to engrave on most wooden pens and pencils.  Engraving the barrel where it will be handled constantly can result in obvious issues such as breakage of fine pieces in the engraving, and in not so obvious issues such as filling the engraved areas with "stuff' that comes from the owner's hands".  Think about it.
