I was having this conversation with Gerry yesterday, I was using my 105 easygraver for the first time. Was starting to sharpen my first 1.8mm round when I thought to myself what if I skip whole 1 and 2 and go straight to 3, 4 and 5, since it's small already. Had a phone call an emergency had to leave and didn't get to finish.

How many of you skip 1 and 2 (graver shaping holes, in other words just used to taper to a smaller tip).

I'm just thinking if I skip one and 2 will it give my 1.8 greater strength so he won't break when I engrave a firearm, or will I have heel drag?

I'm going to experiment later on today, just want to know your thoughts.

Saludos,

Carlos

Try it both ways if you don't like one turn it around and cut it the other way.
