Has anyone done any engraving on resonator guitars or dobros as they're commonly called? I'm an amateur player (amateur engraver,signwriter, amateur most things I do) and I was running around a resonator guitar forum and I'm getting real interested in engraving some resonator plates, that's the hubcap looking thing in the middle of the guitar body.I'd welcome any information on design, holding devices and general experiences engraving these things. I've also seen engraved metal guitar bodies and wondered how one goes about tackling a monster like that. They seem to be done alot with wrigglers but I'm sure a guitar won't fit in my vice.Thanks, Dave
