    Can I buy blank GRS gravers, put them in a Lindsey sharpening template and shape them myself?

    Before I sharpen any round graver, I grind a flat area on the shank. The set screw is put down on the flat area to keep the graver firmly in place. That keeps in the right orientation for the nest needed sharpening.

    Question: Design translation.

    Always remember to heat any toner transfer so that it will not smear easily. Heat sets it on the paper heat will set it on metal. I use a heat gun.

    ngraver scrollmaster kit

    I bought them and I don't like them. Perhaps that is because I tried to use them one time and didn't like the results. The scrolls don't seem to follow the golden mean. My suggestion is to study drawings and practice. When I draw a backbone, it takes me many corrections before I get it the...

    New Epson Eco Tank for transpaency transfers?

    Laser Jet Pro CM1415fnw Most people will have trouble with jams. To avoid that I sand about 1/2 inch of the parchment where you place the tape. The silicon on the parchment will make the paper pull loose as it goes through the printer. I use 320 grit to do that. I use the Prismacolor marker...
