I have been working on my monograms after I get off work. I started cutting the script monogram with my flat graver and ran into problems right off! My geometry is way off and I butchered the "D" in the top left corner. So I switched over to my 120 and and finished it out.

all these are on 2x2 practice plates

I use Sam's flat 40 deg. with 10-20 deg. hill.
Works perfect

You're doing great James. The flat has to be just right but the 120 is also very effective as you have proven. Good work!
