Marius Mellebye - EngraverHand Designs and Artwork

[EngraverHand]

Hi all Some of my engraving and designs, some for study, some for practice and some ideas for actual engraving projects..

So this first one is an idea and a study for an actual knife I have that will be engraved.. not sure if this is the final, but started sketching.



This one started as a design for a knife.. but I was not too happy with it, but I didnt want it to go to waste, so I finished more or less in a different way..



And this one is a design for a knife I´m working on at the moment..

This is a knife I engraved a couple of years back.. it was my very first real gold inlay with 24k gold.. The knife itself was nothing special, but a good experience and a gift for my father..

It has as you can see different design on each side.. as it was beside a gift for my father, a good practice piece for me.. The Stainless steel was really crap and thin.. but happy with the end result at the time

beautiful engraving sir

many thanks!

Here is the dial that I engraved for the same watch. The dial was 0.8 mm thin, so it was a bit scary.. and even more scary, it was before I had a proper vise, so it was wiggling like crazy.. I really cant understand I could do it like that.. but worked well in the end.

I´ll post a video of the process at the bottom if anyone interested. I think it´s quite long and probably a little boring, but..

Awesome work man

I´m working on my first titanium pendant. I believe it´s grade 2 and titanium is totally new to me. I was always a little afraid to try and turned down many jobs with titanium because I didn´t have any experience with it.. Anyway, this grade 2 cuts really well and is quite enjoyable to work with. At least I´m having fun with it.

I´m using the M48 gravers and no tip breaks as I was "afraid" of.. so far

Very very nice Marius. Do you use a universal 116 deg faceangle when cutting/shading?

Very very nice Marius. Do you use a universal 116 deg faceangle when cutting/shading?

Jørn-Ove

Yes I use the 116 for almost everything, including this. This one has a little more steep face.. I dont know exactly the degrees, but I guess around 50+ for a little more strong tip. I use the bead setter, but the same 116 Universal template

Damp it! now I drooled all over my keyboard.
Beautiful!

Scary.. I usually engrave stainless steel, then I did a titanium pendant and then jumping back to this gold ring.. Starting with the monogram on the face but still have to remove the background and add a little shading.. Phew, I totally forget to breathe.. It scratches just looking at it.. Happy so far, but it´s quite small, for me like a pinky finger ring.

Photo not edited except a little blur on the edges.. but had to use a kind of flat light..

Yesterday I finally got the time to put my signature on the titanium pendant I recently engraved.. so I can say it’s officially done and off it goes to the USA again.

I also had a little fun making a new soundtrack for this video, so if anyone wants to see the process of the engraving and listen to the music, there is a YouTube video

Hope you like it!

this is NICE

 

[EngraverHand]

Thanks all for looking and comments! I´m happy for all constructive comments.

Just finished this ring too.. casted gold was quite a challenge, but fun and turned out great I think, even though I was struggling a little with shading, but no one will ever see at real size.
