Well, in addition to the somewhat snarky answers, I seem to recall a
metal tipped pen that left a nice deposit on the glass. Was the tip
titanium? It's been 19 years since I saw one (at Penland - no pun
intended!). Glassblowers used it to sign their work. So, what is it
called, and where can I - & the OP - get one?

Thanks,
Joe

It is NOT permanent on glass. It can easily be rubbed off...with steel
wool or even a finger nail or a wet cloth. I think I'd go for
sanblasting the names and the logo.

They also make a electic engraver by inland...

but you can find the same thing at A.C.Moore or Michaels (or any of
the

larger craft type chainstores)....I use one all the time to sign my
work...

It is worth the investment...

BTW, it would be kind of neat to have each one sign and with this it
would

be very permanent
