introduction and inquiry

[Dagwood24]

Hello, please let me introduce myself, my name is Chuck Diephuis, now live in the Lake Tahoe area of Nevada. I have been a long time collector and now have had some success with making a few dags. I’m getting ready to try again this summer but am having a hard time getting in touch with Rembrandt Graphics. Does anyone have a recommendation for another copper plate supplier? Grateful for any input. Thanks

I have a response for Rivera1212. Please consider Eric Mertens at the Daglab in Oakland. This would be reasonably close for you and he is clearly an accomplished photographer.

No problems so far and they will cut to size… for a little extra cost.

Fast too.

i forgot to tell you their copper was a little rough but it did come with a protected layer of mylar to protect the surface as best they could, but it will still need to be polished out
