I’m searching for a company that will take a photo of a logo or
design and make one of those zinc(?) plates that I can then mold and
make in gold.
I think it’s called photo engraving, but it’s been many years
since I thought about it.
Some companies glue the plate to a piece of wood, but I obviously
don’t want that.
Help?

Hi Paf
Owosso, Home - OWOSSO Graphic Arts, Inc. is the place used for
my engravings. In my early career as a photographer/photogengraver for
a newspaper, my job was making zinc engravings. I sure don’t miss
working with nitric acid.
You might also want to consider investment casting photopolymer. One
of my YouTube videos shows the process used for some of my castings,
both for making a vulcanized mold for wax injection or investing
directly Centrifugal & Vacuum Assist Casting - YouTube
Hope this helps
