Re: Lettering Engraving-Shaded line, need help.
Zernike,
My Dad is left-handed and he taught me how to engrave. I feel your pain! He always cuts beauty stems bottom to top. I like to say he does a lot of stuff bottom side first. But he also taught me to look at every design up-side down to see if it looks right. That works left or right-handed.
The last plate you did with "Baby" on it is really pretty good. Steve did teach you well! Thanks for sharing the not-so-good S - logo with us. I never get to see other people's not-so-good stuff, although I have about 50 pounds of practice plates of my own, and I guarantee there's stuff in there that makes your S logo look great.
Maybe a thread for work you wouldn't even show your dog would be in order? I'm new here so I don't want to start out on that foot!
Dave
