Engraving Book Someday

There's a wealth of information in here that might lend itself to the most comprehensive book on engraving every written.

There's the old saying about 'when it's steam engine time' referring to how there were only the occasional steam toy from way back with the Egyptian Pharos up until the 1800's when all of a sudden everything else was there and wham! - all of sudden we go from little spinning toys to railroads.

Similarly, engraving was mostly handed down from Master to Apprentice with a few books on the way. 25 years ago conditions for sharing start to open up and FEGA was born. Fast forward to just a few years ago and the Internet is finally getting ubiquitous and enough people have broadband that sharing pictures is easy. You start the Cafe and start spreading the word in November. I found out about it in June of 2007 and I think it had either just hit 1,000,000 or was just under it.

Obviously late 2006 was 'Internet Engraving Forum time' and this train is rolling!

The numbers mean that a lot of people like this place, and that's because of the GREAT members and the information they freely share. Can't ask for more than that!

This forum is one of the first things I look at each morning and the last thing I look at each night. And Each time I visit, I am amazed at the things I see and learn.

The closest hand engraver that I know of lives hundreds of miles away from my remote area here in the Pacific Northwest....The guys and gals here at the Cafe are my only connection to the engraving world. I can ask any question and get a knowedgable answer at any time.... what a wonderful thing.
