This is a bracelet I made for my mom for christmas. I could have done a lot of things better, but it's my first engraving project. She was happy with it.

Dave,
For a first engraving project I think you did a remarkable job! I know how you feel - I am rarely satisfied when I get done with a piece & I am sure most of see things we would do differently the next go-round!
Keep it up and continue to look at your work with a critical eye & you will continue to improve!

My thoughts,

Weldon

The coloring is an epoxy resin called "Colores" You mix the color you want with the appropriate type of hardener, anywhere from very thin to fill cracks to very thick (which I used here) to apply to smooth or domed surfaces. I put it in a squeeze bottle with a needle tip and squeezed it out where I wanted it. Easiest part of the whole process.
