Hello to all. I am in the process of making a specific jewellery related piece which i would love to be able to hand engrave to add a more personal and hand made touch. Unfortunately i am a total newbie when it comes to hand engraving so i am not sure if what i want to achieve is even possible.
So, the questions:
1. Can you hand engrave a very thin piece of aluminium or copper? And when i say thin i mean 0,2mm thick.Obviously the aim is not just to carve something on it but for it to show deep enough to be nice.
2. Initially i would like to engrave just some numbers and go from there. Are the tools shown here adequate enough for this?
Any reply will be most welcome and appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
