signing of trumpet calls

Over the last few months, I have made numerous trumpet calls of various designs.  I struggled with several different designs, mouth pieces, lip stops etc.  However,  with the help of several OG members, I have been able to come up with a decent sounding call.  In fact, I will be carrying a couple to south Texas in a couple weeks for the opening of spring season. I particularly want to thank Gitzit69 for his help  in getting me through some pitfalls.  Without his help, I would not be writing this.  During this time, I also got some help from some friends with their feedback.

Anyway, yesterday I got an order for two trumpet calls.  My question is, how do you sign your trumpet call?  I looked on line and did not see any calls that were signed by the maker.  Any help would be appreciated.

Again, I want to thank Gitzit69 (Dave) for his help.  He was very helpful and took his time to steer me though the minefield of building a decent sounding trumpet.  I also want to thank Marvin Hasenek for his tutorial.  It is what started me in the right direction to start with.  Thanks guys and may both of you have a great day.

I sign my trumpets in two ways, one inside the bell area, two, I engrave the brass ferule with my name date and call number.
