Great basic examination of engravingBy A TexanWe have a Jewelry shop - [...] is one of our sites - we have found this book to be a great basic handbook and reference. It is a good guide on tools and their care. The only comprehensive reference I have found on sharpening gravers. I am a jeweler. My husband is the engraver. I keep a copy by my bench too. Engraving makes each item personal and must be done with skill + care. The book is a big help.5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Get this oneBy dan DThere are a lot of how to books and DVDs on beginning and advanced engraving. Most are informative and very expensive; but for the basics and beginning techniques get this book before you but anything else and read it. It was not put out by a manufacturer of air driven gravers (which are handy). It is what you would have been taught back in the 60s and 70s. Master the basics and the advanced techniques come easier. That is what this book does; plus it defines terms; techniques and methods. Do what it says in the book and practice them. After that find a basic course at a local college or sign up for one the manufacturers classes. Getting proficient at engraving takes time and this book is the place to start.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. timely delivery- --- good price nothin to grump aboutBy jd swartzfegeri knew the contents of the book. no surprise there. timely delivery- --- good price nothin to grump about !! happy customer
