Built in Ohio. Built for a legacy.

A new direction, made with purpose.

Dead Center Engraving Co. began in Wooster in 2025 after a major change in direction brought Director of Operations Cooper Meshew home from working with a custom harvesting crew out West.

What started as a creative outlet became an opportunity to build something lasting: a local business, a source of pride, and a legacy for the future.
