Just registered today. I have been following the site and finally got tired of not being able to post questions or see the photos referred to. I have done little hand engraving, but have been interested in learning since reading James E. Meek's The Art Of Engraving.
I have been a self employed coining die engraver for 15 years, producing the bulk of my engraving with Gorton pantographs, an Augenstein copying engraver, and some hand work. I'm presently attempting to bring a small cnc machine up to speed, but soon found that the learning curve is brutal.
I am looking forward to starting to learn about hand engraving and eventually incorporate this skill into my shop.
