Hi guys, my name is Jeff, thanks for allowing me onto your great forum. On week days I'm a working jeweller here in the UK, but at the weekends I practice the "dark art" of Hobo Nickel carving.
Not being able to afford the relatively high prices of the equipment needed to pursue this engaging hobby I decided, after watching Shaun Hughes Youtube channel, to try to make most of it myself hoping I could use it to get good enough to make and sell enough Hobo Coins to afford the Lyndsey AirGraver and ball vice etc. It's going ok, but I've got a few more coins to sell if I want the Palm Control.
I've posted videos of my equipment builds on Youtube in order that other beginners could try to get into engraving without too much cost. I just wanted your opinion on whether I was stepping on anybody's toes by posting any of these videos. I don't try to sell any of this stuff, it's just there for people to view.
Thanks for any input.
