    Hope nobody minds. Got to move this back to the top in case anyone has missed seeing it. It's just remarkably beautiful engraving, shading and highlight. And the brass just gives it some extra oomph.

    See you're keeping busy with engraving and knife work, Chip. Good work, keep it coming. Your pictures are great. And I have fished a lot at Eagle Lake too, the one near the Oregon border.

    Question: Inscribed Model 1886 Winchester

    Thank you Roger. The slight curvature in the main stroke of the letter T and the pronounced wobble in the downstroke of the letter Y are also indications of handcutting. None of this is meant to criticize the engraving job. We are sleuthing and It's fine work. I would be happy if I could do as...

    styles of engraving

    Welcome to the world of engraving and thank you for posting your pictures. I would call your examples "line engraving" for wont of a better description. Bulino can be line or dots or a combination of both. Look at an American banknote, the pictures and images are engraved in long and short...

    Question: Inscribed Model 1886 Winchester

    Of course, anything is possible, but I have strong doubts that it was machine cut. Why in the world would scribe lines be needed for machine cutting? Scribe layout lines are clearly visible above and below the lettering in the photograph. And the second vertical line in the capital A and the...

    Question: Inscribed Model 1886 Winchester

    Hello Roger, and thank you for the excellent photograph. I'm willing to make a fool of myself by hazarding a guess. 1. It appears that the scribed layout lines, the narrow cross bar on the letters A, the narrow top and bottom of the C and the narrow cross bar the T all have remaining CCH in...

    Polishing after engraving

    I agree with Goldjockey. A scratch, when freshly made is usually a small "ditch" with the metal displaced to the edge and above the normal surrounding surface. The worst thing you can do is to erase this raised metal by using abrasives or scrapers. Use good magnification to find where the...

    Finished New Design

    Thank you Leland. Try extending the main scroll on the left closer to the screw head. This will allow that scroll to be about the same size as the main scroll on the right. Then come off the left scroll with two smaller scrolls. How about putting your initials in the grass area of the bison.? Or...
