Smile Hello from Holland

Hello from Holland.

I try to be goldsmith in scarce off time.

Following classes in basic traditional hand engraving last year I have become an enthusiast today. Surfing the web I encountered the engraving forum with more of me’s. Scrolling through the pictures posted I am absolute a starter in the field. But with advanced engraving lessons coming season I might gain some further experience.

Hi Hora,

Welcome to this forum.
This is a good forum to get and stay interested in engraving.
Where do you live in Holland? And are you attending classes in schoonhoven or amsterdam?
If you ever would want to try out the Lindsay Palm Control you are welcome to have a go at it in Haarlem

Daniel

Hallo Hora,

Good for you to visit this forum. If you like engraving forget engraving you learn at school and start with airgraver at once. It a shame that thy don't learn at school about airgravers.
Daniel, or some other with airgraver, can show the advantage of airgraver at line engraving and for goldsmith also very impotant STONESETTING
