Just now getting up to speed on Sam site. Posted a pic of a stainless buckel I made for a client. The clients initials are part of the vines R K . 24k wire back ground.
Hey Kurt, where you been buddy? Long time no see. Welcome to the cafe. Good to have you with us. Oh yeah, and that is a powerful lot of work and done flawlessly. Beautiful!............... Like I think I said somewhere before, nothing catches they eye like a beautiful custom buckle. Rock on!
Hello Kurt, it has been about 26 years ago we met at the Houston gun show, you were an inspiration then and more so now. That looks great, but which came first the engraved ram or the gold inlay back ground?
You have to engrave the piece without marring the the polished gold. Use a lot of tape to keep metal chips, burrs, and of course your hands from dragging over the gold.
