    Engraving

    I wasn't going to show these but might as well. I saw the engraver at school so I picked it up wrote my name once looked like shit then I started drawing and came up with these

    My first attempt


    My second attempt, kinda got ruined the teacher reckoned it's look better polished but it ended up filling the holes up with black crap and rubbing out the shallow engraving marks.


    My 3rd


    And 4th

    Never timed it but must be around 15min for that last one

    watched any american guns episodes?
    the son on that show is a pretty good basic engraver, I cant remember how he does it but I think he draws it on paper then sticks it on?

    Good work Toby. Yes I think it looks better polished too.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
