Re: Is the Airgraver the best to buy?
Greetings Jim from up here in Modesto, CA. I'm also new to engraving and searched the be-jabbers out of the web trying to absorb whatever info I could get. My concern was to get the right tool the first time around and I believe I made the best choice. Yes it is alittle more expensive put your getting the most advanced top of the line engraver which everyone would love to own. If you do the math you'll find out that there's only a couple hundred dollars difference for a new engraver (if that).
I should be getting my new classic w/foot control, sharpener fixture & regulator next week (if my check don't bounce, he-he) just fooling Steve.
Ways I'll save money on unil I get better:
Vise & lazy susan project
use table stones for sharpening engravers
use head magnifiers
use simple lighting techneques
try not to break gravers by practicing on soft metals
