You would do well to try to attend the FEGA show and meeting in LV this coming January. There will be many engravers there for you to rub elbows with, ask questions and make many new engraving friends.

I could not agree more with SamW. The engravers guild is the best way to find and meet the best American engravers, not to mention the fact that the guild has so many invaluable assets for aspiring engravers. The knowledge base and tools such as castings, DVDs, books and articles are priceless. Being in California it's an easy trip to attend the show in Vegas.

Hey vdrum4250,

I'm a bit further south on I-5, in north San Diego. PM me if you don't get any nibbles closer to home and we can arrange a meet 'n greet.

Best regards,
Doug
