I use Guilplates based in Guildford, Surrey for all my 00 and G3 nameplates. I can highly recommend them and a swift service as well.

Thanks guys, but I'm in Canada. Would appreciate a little more info, like web page,  e-mail address etc.

I found the website for 247 Developements and sent off an e-mail to the..(Too bad I moved from Leeds:) )
And I found a Phone number for Gilford so thank you both.

My V2 name plates, makers plates, etc came from Diane Carney -www.loco-nameplates.com. I think Guilplates supply them painted, Diane does not. Not such a problem with a straightforward name - my plates
for the Snapper had the regimental badge and coloured background.

I used Diane Carney/... Good service

For what it's worth, I too use Diane Carney's service; you should see the fantastic Sentinel builders plates she's done for me, with a watchmakers eyeglass you can even read the construction number!

Yes, I agree, Diane Carney's work cannot be bettered.
Every letter and number on my tiny LNER Stratford Works plates can be clearly read with a magnifying glass.

At the risk of over-egging this thread, my last post was incomplete. The plates supplied by Diane for my V2 were  unfortunately subject to some quality issues. However, Diane resolved these very quickly, supplied new plates to the high standard for which she is well know. Problems occur, it is how well they are dealt with that matters. I would unhesitatingly use her products again.

Been away and just saw this thread... I'm in Canada too, but couldn't find anyone here to make etched builder's plates. I've had good experience with PPD (http://www.ppdltd.com/) in Lochgilphead, Argyll. They are quick if you can provide the artwork, and the prices seem very reasonable to me.

Thanks Andrew, I'm good for now.
