Default Re: Videos ~ 11 hours

Steve,
Just found and am browsing your site. Did you ever find the inlaying videos? I'd be interested in seeing the technique you use. I'm only a newbie, but it's on my list of things to try. For the larger areas that were gold inlay, are they only held in place by undercutting the edges, or do you crosshatch the inlay underlayment with a raised burr to help hold the gold, which is what I believe Meeks suggests? Your videos are a great example of the process, and like everyone else here, I'd like to thank you for putting them up. Is there a picture somewhere of your overall engraving workspace? Looks like you work under a 'scope a lot. Or is that just when you're making the videos?
Jim
