Hello,

I just picked up the bench graver from steve and its amazing. Looking forward to learning as much as i can on engraving. I will mostly be using it to cut settings for jewellery.
I have used a scuba tank to power the system instead of a compressor as it has clean dry air and i have several kicking arround. Also it should run the system for over a month of heavy use.
Thanks
Luke

I have been playing with it for 3 weeks now, but i dont have a pressure gauge on it yet so not sure how much it has dropped. Cant see it being more than 100 psi though. Ill get on it and confirm that for you.
