Of the relatively few things I truly dread doing (engraving-wise anyway), doing fine shading in 24kt gold ranks right up there, especially if it involves tight curves. I manage to get the job done, but am never really comfortable doing it, nor ecstatic with the results. Over these many years I've tried a variety of geometries and can't seem to find any that give the same clean, bur-free, crisp results I get in steel. I see Sam, Brian, and some others do it with no discernible difference between their lines in gold & steel and I continued to be confounded. Any suggestions?
Or maybe it's just operator error... :thinking:
