Aprayinbear,
There is a tutorial on the board for doing that however the picture links seem to be broken and the gentleman (Acer) that did the tutorial is out of country.  Unless someone else pops in you may have to wait a bit to get and answer.

Try this link.  Acer and I discussed our various methods of making the tools for applying a makers mark here.  On the old board, I posted information about making a mark.
