    Seeking photography advise

    Dan, I have to agree with Marty. I take 1 or 2 thousand pictures of flowers around my place every year for reference ( I am a little crazy for flowers). None of them are perfect. Look at an oak leaf, absolutely none of them are perfect from side to side. Mother Nature is not a carbon copy...

    The Secret Meeting of Bulgarian Engravers 2020

    From what you have posted, it looks to be as much fun as Scott Pilkington’s gathering. Please post in advance for the upcoming “Meetings”, it would give me an excuse to visit Bulgaria. The food alone would be sufficient to get me there, I am sure others would like to join also. Brant

    Sam W, Thanks for the progress pics. I see you are doing the gold-work after the scroll-work. How do you level the gold without marring the beautiful scrolls?

    Lindsey Classic Palm Control - Collet Selection

    Suzy, Collets are not necessary with Steve’s tools. The collets that he sells are for special applications. The feel of his tools are the same as a normal push graver, as are the GRS systems. I have not used the Pulse Graver so I cannot say how they feel, but I would assume they feel the same.

    Question: victor ballvise upgrade.

    Monk, Mine has an adjuster on the bottom that is supposed to regulate the support bearing, but mine does not work very well. I backed the adjuster off completely and built myself a rotary table that is adjustable.
