One woman show…
Hi, I’m Amanda — the owner and creator behind Take it to the ’Graver aka N’Grave! My laser engraving journey started back in 2011 at the Arts & Crafts Center on Yokota Air Base, Japan, where I worked in the plaque shop. That’s where I discovered my love for laser engraving and metal engraving — I was instantly hooked! I loved being able to combine creativity with precision and make something truly personal for people.
After Japan, I moved to RAF Lakenheath in England and continued doing what I loved — engraving, designing, and learning new techniques.
Fast forward to 2022, I decided to dive back into my passion and ordered my own 100W CO₂ laser engraver. What started as a creative outlet has grown into a small business where I get to design and create custom, one-of-a-kind pieces for amazing customers like you.
Thank you so much for supporting my small business and letting me do what I love — creating meaningful, personalized art that lasts.
