advise on what to buy
I am looking for advice on tools for working in copper and maybe steel. I am an intaglio printmaker and am frustrated with etching and would like the control and sculpting qualities of engraving. I have spent some time with hand tools. Unfortunatly I have found them to be very hard upon my hands and wrists. After a few hours of work I begin to have serious pain. I work on images that tend to be on a larger scale than the majority of work being done by the folks on this site. I would love any thoughts on what would work best for large format engraving.
