My first bulino attempt
Well here it is my first attempt at bulino engraving, all dots no lines. It's a pain in the butt to photograph!! Any tips tricks in this area would be more than welcome! The bulino engraving is on a 1 inch (25.4 mm) dia. sterling silver disc, the baby tiger on both the scrimshaw and bulino piece are the exact same size, that is a U.S. quarter in front of the bulino engraving. I did the scrimshaw first so I would have the composition of the baby tiger down and be able to concentrate on method in the bulino piece. Any/all advice, questions, comments, criticisms are more than welcome. Hope you enjoy, Ron

It seems that you will have hardly any trouble in changing techniques. Thanks for showing. Daniel |

Re: My first bulino attempt
Thanks Katherine You get the credit for me seeing/trying this stuff ya know........ I might have to hate you now! Just kidding I find that smaller/greater detail is possible in bulino vs. scrimshaw but the tip on your graver is of HUGE importance when it comes to the results. Learning scrim was a cake walk compared to what's involved with this stuff!
