Tombstone Question?
I was wandering what kind of machine that tombstomes are made out of today? such as as high pressure water engraver or i heard something about lasers..
The stone is still cut by hand. An engraver usually makes a template to show where the letters should be cut and applies the “mask” to the stone. That allows for precise placement. After the letters are cut, they are blackened for greater contrast using a fill material that seems to be part paint and part rubber. The mask is pulled off the stone when the work is done so there is no scratching or chipping.
This is all from a conversation I had once 20 years ago with someone in the business.
