Default Re: Wriggling?



Welcome to the forum!

The Western Bright Cut guys do a lot of wriggle cuts so I'm sure you'll have lots to talk about.

I know wriggle cuts are favored on instruments for the dual reasons of fairly thin metal and the need for a very wide 'cut' that can be seen at a longer than normal distance.

I haven't done much of it myself but I've done enough to know it was - and is - popular because it's also a very fast way to cover a surface.

Hmmmm... I'll bet if you combine wriggle cuts with flare cut scroll (click that 'Glossary' link in red at the top if you're not familiar with that) you could get something really nice, really fast. If I ever get some darn time to engrave I might have to give that a try...
