Danae's practice plates October 2017

[Dani Girl]

Hi everyone.

Sorry i have not posted in months.

What's new? I have started teaching and ran my first basic engraving course a few weeks ago. Loved doing it.

I have been cutting some sample plates they could examine or take wax or smoke transfers from.

Any teaching tips or critiques would be appreciated

Thanks.

I am teaching basic engraving.

The two who signed up for the last course were very interested in silver and jewellery and having fun with it so I taught them both Deep relief and Western. My plan was to just do deep relief but in that instance I slipped in some more info.

I have one signed into the next course and I expect I will cover what the course outline said (ie basic scroll engraving) and work on whatever he wants to do the rest of the time.

Once I have done a lot of these courses there may be enough engravers in the country to warrent running more advanced courses.

I am conflicted about whether to alter the course and wing it or stick to my outlined course but I always cover the material I said I would in the advertisement.

Sorry to hijack my own thread again. But i would love to get some good liner graver for bright cut. Are the ngraver ones the best. I dont believe they post to Aus. Would anyone be willing to forward them on to me?

hi Danae- i've actually been putting off buying a few for myself, so i'd be happy to make kind of a double order and send half of 'em to Oz. PM me and we'll work out the particulars.

You work is wonderful.
