Because I already had made the transfer (experimenting with that roller) I thought "okay let's cut it also".
This is stainless steel, don't know what kind it is because I found it at a scrapyard.
At the beginnig there was a lot of breakage but after I tryed an angle of 50 degrees it went well.

cool stuff ! a rule of "thumb" for stainless-- if a magnet will stick to it, engraving will likely go fairly well. if mag wont stick, i'd avoid cutting it.

Yes KSnyder, ik like de design too, but it isn't mine.
It was an example from a Dover book whiche I got by email.
You can get every week or so examples from Doverbooks when you give them your emailadres, and sometimes there are very interesting books with nice designs.
Those examples are free and you can save them on your computer.
