Hello, my name is Denny Lytle and I am from Utah. This is my first post and I wanted to share with you three life and work changing experiences from the last week.
1. I found an joined the engravers cafe. I have been building spurs and doing bright cut for the last 15 years and I have learned more and been more inspired in the last week than at any other time. This resource is as good as it gets and I am very grateful to all the fine people who so willingly share your knowledge and experience. I am a serious student again and it feels good. I had lost that for a while. Frankly, I have been at this computer as much as possible the last few days with this stupid look of amazement and my jaw hanging open. My wife thought I had one of those mini strokes.
2. I bought and set up my microscope. I know most of you are sitting out there and smiling. I had no idea. It has opened up a whole new world. My first practice plate was better than anything I have ever done.
3. I bought a 120 degree graver to try. I have been using mostly flats forever and never properly learned to use a 90. From the first cut with the 120 I knew I had found a new best friend.
Mostly I wanted to say hello and thank you.
