Engraving on "Not-so-stupid" steel


A nice little gift for my sweetie.
Wife Betty bought a car and I thought I'd make her a new key fob to go with it.
Turned out pretty nice for my first stone-setting project.

Scrimshaw???



My First attempt at scrimshaw. I bought Sandra Brady's DVD's and actually paid attention to them. I also used my invention, The "BradyBlok" scrimshaw/bulino workholding fixture. Not too bad for a beginner.

Engraving work for Precision Small Arms


Just completed these "twins" for Precision Small Arms.
These are basically the same as the original "Baby Browning" .25ACP pocket automatic pistol.
Too bad I didn't get the grips for these,but that's typical.
