Hi all,
I inherited this copper wheel glass engraver from my wifes grandfather.He was an engraver for Wheaton glass in millville NJ. I just pulled it out of storage after 8 years. It is now all set up in my studio and working, but I am having a very hard time finding (instructional) info. There is no name or date on the lower unit I was told by family that it was treadle originally and later converted to electric but cant confirm. I figured with the knowledgeable crowed in the café I would post here.......thanks for looking......any info greatly appreciated
some pics of the set up and an oil jar he was working on
sorry for the sideways pic....not to good with this fancy thinking box
