    Introduction to engraving

    I saw this video and thought that some here may find it interesting.

    Thanks. That was very interesting. I have thought about doing engraving for a long time but other projects took precedence. I would suggest to anyone that if they are interested in this type of work/hobby, to start sooner vs later. As you get older, motor skills, finger dexterity, etc kinda go fast. I can't really shoot revolvers without changing out grips due to some nerve damage. I have always been fascinated with folks that can do artistic things. Thanks again.

    I watch Clckspring often. He is a very talented artist and machinist. He makes engraving look so easy. I would like to give it a try, but for the time being, I have too many projects going to start a new one.

    I knew a guy who was a neurosurgeon and also built flintlock longrifles. He said that engraving them was more challenging than his surgeries.
