    transfers

    Both the Brother I use at work and the one at home work fine thankfully. Both on original toner cartidges aswell...but only when not using straight acetone...

    transfers

    I always thought that inkjet transfers are not transferred with acetone? The laser printer transfer need the acetone, in which case I have found the 100% acetone doesn't transfer as good as the nailpolish remover. Mind you...I don't use inkjet printers to transfer, so maybe someone who does can...

    Lil help please

    I use Lindsay carbalt also. With a slightly dubbed point for the deeper lines. Thing to keep in mind is that the scraps cut better than "worked on" pieces. They tend to have some hard spots in them. Or at least that has been the case for me

    TRANSFERS

    Sorry John...I didn't mean to

    I am self taught, if that is still possible, with the internet and all. Youtube and some of Mr. Alfano's dvd's...and some good people here and there pointing me in the right direction. Along the way, I have tried to listen to any advice I have been given(tried...not always succeeded). The...

    I'm just a beginner....

    For stainless...your control needs to be as perfect as you can get it. Your gravers will not be able to stand even the slightest wobble of your hand, it will simply break/chip the tip of your graver. The lines you cut on the mountains should be no problem whatsoever in stainless. Or...at least...

    Thanks, that is very kind of you to say. I continue to see myself as someone that just started on his journey to learn this beautiful craft. I tend to see alot of mistakes in everything I do.
