Student work.

I have a student on this time, he would like to make animal to try.
This is his first one

What do you think about it?

[SVD]

Wow!

Now that it's Summer and I'm getting a bit more free time I need to work on my drawing skills - I might be able to engrave that but not if I can't draw it first.

Wish I could work it out to study with you Roland - ah well, at least I get to soak up some bits here.

Hi Roland,

Please tell me this is not the first time he picks up a graver, please..
That is some first for bulino!!!
Cant wait to see his last.

Greetings,

Daniel

Draw is a good thing to study.
Sorry Daniel but it is the first time he try the animal and his third day of training course.
He work with palmcontrol and he never engrave before

Thats just crazy!.... Most traditional engravers would not believe this is possible... Amazing!

[rbaptiste]

All time I recieive a new student I don't believe it possible in five days.
I learn with hammer and chisel and a little push graver and it was very difficult to make a good work.
Now with the Palmcontrol you must just drive you tool and it is very amazing the learning speed.
I don't believe my eyes each time but it is real

Roland,

This is amazing, you must be a good teacher.
I been plugging away with push gravers, hammer and chisels for a bit and it sure is hard to make progress.

I've just started glass engraving any advice would be grateful ie...tools and soforth...thanx

[rbaptiste]

For the glass is very different, you must used rotary tool and diamond bur.
You put the draw what you want to engrave into the glass and you engrave on the other side of the glass.
