    Uneven belly facets with Lindsay template

    I had a similar problem and after a close study of everything you notice the C Max blanks are a tiny bit smaller than the Lindsey blanks, if you put each one in and after tightening the set screw grab each by the tip and move it back & forth. You will see that the CMax moves back & forth a tiny...

    Question: Templates for Knife Scale Designs?

    The great thing about practicing drawing is it's something you always find a little time to dedicate to it here & there if you just carry around a pad and some pencils( he'll even a pen ) and you can practice while sitting in your car waiting for someone who ran into a store or even while...

    Question: Andu Engraver

    All anyone has to do who wants to know specifics on those details is ask Steve he's extreamly easy to talk to . I'm not sure about any of his parents being expired or not so I don't make assumptions. .I know the name palm control is trademarked this why GRS uses a different term. I accidentally...

    Question: Andu Engraver

    It was the 1st one I bought. I GAVE IT AWAY To a guy just starting out. They have almost no resale value. That's one thing you can't say about a Lindsey. I've owned 5 or 6 in my time and have run into health issues where I needed some serious cash immediately. Everyone except 1 sold for the same...

    Question: Andu Engraver

    You can use a hammer and chisel to see if you have talent. Alot goes into developing & marketing, everyone talks about things being unfair or the price is to high. Lindsey quality is no better than the knockoffs, These ppl NEVER held a Lindsey in their hand. Now on to my point. Imagine for a...

    Getting started drawing on procreate in 2021?

    I just figured out what this guys number one complaint is . He found out that you don’t get a “ participation trophy “ for engraving and with that automatically get the same exact respect as a Master Engraver so the new guys feelings don't get hurt.
