What are you going to do to remove all that fire scale?

 

[didyoung]

that is chapstick......i didnt want the liver of sulf. to discolor that area.

Sorry about that Shawn. On my phone it looks like fire scale around the letters.

Another very nicely engraved bracelet. How are these bending for you with the letters and the other one had a cross soldered on? Are you running into any problems with cracking around the solder joints?

 

[didyoung]

Shawn,

I have blown up photo's of several of your previous projects which help me with shading. Your bracelet is a progression building on prior works and its effect is more subtle ...its another great study aid....appreciate all your posts.

Bill i have to study my own work to try and find all the areas i need to improve on:thinking:....there are lots of much better engravers on here that you can learn from.
