I have a customer looking for a map to be engraved on wood.
Does anyone have a good source of maps, that can be converted for engraving?

If you are looking for lake maps in Wisconsin the DNR has lake survey maps for nearly every lake in the state online, although most of them are from the 70's. It is possible your state has the same thing.
