    Silhouette America Curio Crafting Printer. was 150$ ish used it for elctoeching knife blades and air brush stencils . never really went any where , too hard to weed the really small stuff. Sort of led me back to engraving. I have a lot to learn yet.

    Need A Better Microscope!!!

    Umm where to start I am so jazzed up over this scope . The .5 will give you room to drive a truck under to scope. with the .63 you could still engrave with boxing gloves on. Ok I will calm down. I have a 5 inch Victor engraving ball with a leather bag ( enough sniggering the price was right )...

I can't tell you what they are cutting ;-) but I can say they don't want any steel cut till the end of there run. I may just buy some time...

    What's your favorite 1911 to engrave?

    I think the border is a good idea , it would tie in the center element , may be just a line under the ejection port. I think a 1911 will be the first gun I do , I have 2 GI slides left over form my gun building days. Hmmm May be I could get some 12ga sheet stock cut to the size and out line of...

    Question: Andu Engraver

With that said I wish I had a laser welder like the one I used at the lab. A good welder with the right machine under a microscope can cover an...

    EFFECT OF BLUING PROCESSES ON INLAY METALS
