my dream machine is here!




So my machine is here =0) I got this from the Czech Republic a few months ago, I just unpacked it a few days ago and wanted to share this with you guys. If ANYONE has any information, tips, comments or wants to donate anything please write me =0)






The photo below is what the set up looked like when in the Czech Republic and what it will look like when it's set up here. I got everything that you see in the photo.

  1. Leenah,
    Your engraving equipment looks great. You have enough wheels and spindles to get you well on your way. Getting the spindle rack, belt, counter pulley, and assorted required tools is a real bonus.

    One of the nice things about getting a lathe from another engraver is that the lathe already knows how to engrave. All you need to do is listen and respond to what it tells you. You can learn a lot from carefully studying the wheels before you reshape them.

    Good luck in your new adventure.
    Jim

  3. Cup etching along with engraving are usually uncomplicated after you have the right materials. Produces the gentle frosted surface area in almost any cup surface area.
