Does someone have a few clear pictures of the contrast it makes on the item to be engraved? I have searched this topic and get lost in all the other ways someone uses to draw directly on an item. Is this wax something that is drawn on top of like Chineese White or drawn through with a pick of some kind?
Something else I'm looking at doing is taking a drawing I have done in pencil and transfer that pencil drawing to what I'm wanting to engrave. I have been able to lift some of the pencil with tape but not gotten it to transfer to the metal I'm wanting to engrave.
I understand there are chemical options to transfer inkjet and laser prints to the engraved items but I'm just not a computer guy so trying to develop my drawing skills and be able to transfer things from pencil.
