Good news, Lads!
I can engrave steel!
I know it's not quite right, but I'm trying to reproduce it from a limited number of clear photos.

Looks great . Does your process include engraving on steel with a radius hollow?
Strictly speaking, yes. Roland EGX-350 engraver.Quote:

Like a tattoo, always a good idea to have a non-partisan person spell check engravings. Well, on non-test pieces at least!
What are the dimensions for the test piece? any worries on loss of detail in reducing the size?
