Hello out there. My name is Will and I am one of the newest rookies to the engraver world. First of all I would like to say what a great website. I was hoping for some advice about vises if I may. I have been making bits and spurs for a couple years now and feel that I have a grip on that so want to go to the next level. I have been gathering tools (and messing around with hand engraving) and am ready to purchase a vise. My question is would grs's standard block be heavy enough or should a guy try to purchase the magna block? As I stated before I will mainly be engraving on bits and spurs. Also from the research I have done I am assumming that the 901 hand piece would best suit my needs. (I have purchesed a used gravermate) Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated as I hope to have alittle bit of a feel for things before attending a grs school. Thank you
