One of the most frequent questions asked is, "How do I get started engraving?" Join Shane as he discusses everything you need to get started on this ancient art form. He covers the different tools used in hand engraving, recommends his personal preferences, and provides additional resources to beginner engravers such as Jason Marchiafava's Art of Ornamental Engraving class.
Next, Shane covers power-assist engraving tools. While pricier, these tools enable you to make cuts much easier than hand-push engraving tools. Shane shares his favorites (including the very tool he started engraving with himself), covers sharpening and maintenance, and discusses different options for holding the piece you are working on. Lastly, Shane covers microscopes, an absolute essential for seeing what you are engraving. Stay sharp!
