    Stuff I cut. Steel engraving for a Gravure Company.

    sad, but the "march of time" leaves a lot of good people in the dust. sorta like the advent of the pantograph machine. a lot of great people were left with a bag of curious looking tools. makes me wonder where all the cnc people will be in 50 years.

    Portable Microscope

    md: the ones i fiddled with were optically ok, but the mounts for them weren't worth a dime. two of them would usb to my laptop.

    Portable Microscope

    not wanting to rain on your parade, but-- i've tried several different versions of this sort of gadjet. the optics are usually fair . the mounting fixture usually needs to be replaced with something better. something of your own manufacture.

    Beginner asking for vice input

    if the vise is grs it is a bargain. if a foreign-made knockoff, no bargain there. try sending better fotos. esp if ther's logos or info stamped into the metal. for me, a wood workers vise would be useless. however, one goes to war with what one has, not what one wants. do a bit of search here...

    Question: What kind of chair do you guys use?

    you should first take a look at your posture when seated. you may be causing some back strain without even noticing how you position yourself. regardless of the chair, you must design your workstation to allow you to work as comfortably as possible.

    Question: Hammer and Chisel Engraving

    the chosen magnification would depend on your eyesight as well as what it is you're working on. hobos require more (for me ) and maybe none for a guitar pickguard. micromark sells loupes that are adjustable from .5 to 4x. i don't know the working distances. they look like ordinary eyeglasses.

    Critique Request New member..."first practice plate"

    nothing major as this is your first. certainly not perfect. in time you will see improvement. practice makes it all come together. don't be afraid to practice drawing the scroll spine. all that follows will be a bit out of whack with less than a perfectly drawn spine.

    Question: Graver heels

    that's one thing i learned on this forum. when a beginner, i gave little thought to heels. i did some really junky work as well. the last heel touchup i did-- don't really know. i found nearly invisible was the best for me.
