Hello,

As a beginner I would like to learn the basics how to engrave before just starting to carve away. Do you know if there are engravers in Holland who would like to pass on a bit of their skills to a beginner. I have seen the course in Antwerp, Belgium, but was wondering if there is an engraver in the Netherlands. And offcourse I'm willing to pay.
Greetings,
Daniel.

Hi there,

in Germany;
the Europaeische Akademie der Goldschmiede, Silberschmiede & Juweliere is offering Engraving courses.

http://www.fbz-ahlen.de/

http://www.fbz-ahlen.de/index.php/seminare?ziel=seminare&t=ABC

Its the training center of the german GoldsmithsJewellers guild. Prices are moderate due to Gov. support.
Its open to anybody. Location is near Muenster, Northrine Westphalia, so not too far from the Netherlands.
mostly 5 day courses, there are cheap B&B around.

Another good option is the Handwerkskammer Muenster, (Germany) Bildungszentrum.
Its the chamber of crafts, so courses are also not expensive due to gov. support.
