Here are a few of my first attempts at hand push engraving and a picture of the graver handle that I made for myself. I know my plates don't compare to the beautiful work I see on here but I am happy with the progress I'm making. I would like to thank all of the people that post on here. If not for the advice, videos, tutorials, and awe inspiring pictures posted here rank beginners like me wouldn't know where to start.

thanks. the handle is 3.375 from the face to the top of the knob. It is .625 6061 aluminum with a piece of local black walnut for a knob.

If these are first attempts, hand pushed - you've done quite well!
