I DID A LOT OF FRONT STUFFER WORK with a gravermeister. with the correct power and stroke settings there is no reason your work cant look to be a 150 years old or older. it isn't the machine. it's the gal or guy driving the thing ! these tools will do what you tell them to do. you just have to learn how to talk to them. cursing helps !

I am with Monk on this one, I do belive that the great artists of the past would use any tool that would suit thier needs including apprentices. I use a Airgraver most of the time because I can control it the best, I also use several rotary tools, hammers and chisles, files, punches, scrapers, sand paper, stones, and anything else that works, Cheating not on your life. Marcus I do the same demo when people tell that me guns kill. Rant off Dave
