Hi Inkling. Just a little advice when you get the push graver. This is a caution. The name push graver is a little misleading. The power or the push that moves the graver through the metal comes from tha palm of the hand NOT the elbow. Pushing with the hand limits how far the graver can move. Using the hole arm to push with can cause serious injury if you slip out of the cut you are making. Control. sharpness and slow method and you'll do fine. chickenscratcher
