Engraving my first gun! Part 2
Ойын-сауық
First half of the slide is done! Also the video was NOT supposed to be a half hour long, didn't notice till after editing was done. Oh well on to the next one!
For all the music used in this video I used Epidemic Sound:

As a laser engraver who does all of this by fiber optic lasers, I have the absolute respect and appreciation for this work and the hours that goes into it. Often people tell me how talented we are for the engraving we do but this is where true talent lies. Hats off to you and I’ll be following your work.

I hope you’re not making more money than these hand engravers, cause that would be such a slap in the face.

@@bluesummers5051 hand engraving is more expensive than laser engraving (I own guns have have been both laser and hand engraved) but they do make money a lot quicker due to hand engraving takes so long. Butt you cannot beat the look of hand engraved firearms

Gun engraving and pinstriping are two things that are obviously done by hand, because until recently, machines to do that work didn't exist. I worked with a guy who did phenomenal pinstriping in the 80s I really admire that level of skill. I'm beginning to get arthritis in my thumb knuckles from auto mechanics, so I won't be going there. But I have some wood 1911 grips that I might try checkering if I don't find someone else to do it for me. When you start doing stuff like this you get an eye for other guys who have the same skill, and it always leads to improving your own ability when you see guys doing stuff that borders on impossible.

Well said
I once got bit by the bug for this (didn't have the funds, though, so I still have an itch) and went to a jewelry shop asking about engraving. The old man behind the counter said "That's a good business to get in to." As I asked "Why," I already suspected his answer. "Everyone's dead." I was very, VERY happy to see that microscope in the thumbnail. Keep the tradition alive, man. In 1000 years people will still appreciate the handmade stuff if they have souls.
You engravers are really humble. This the 3rd engraving video I’ve seen and all 3 of you have said that you’re not the “most experienced”. As if downplaying your own work. That said, your work is incredible. Keep it up.
Hand engraving on a Browning Hi-Power clone! Absolutely beautiful!
Always great to see some fellow engravers on you today and see they do their work. Good job! I also love seeing the hand drawn and not a transfer cool beans
well done Sir , in the days of laser etching great to see someone holding onto the old ways and well on the way to becoming aa master craftsmen .

If you can get good at this you can make good money doing it. Even if you dont want to do that, I would want to engrave every gun I have (besides antiques and such). From the thumbnail, you nailed it.

Simple hammer and chisel tools is quite budget friendly. Using a pneumatic engraving machine like I use is much more expensive. I started with a hammer and chisel though. Also I made a video talking about beginner tools, good luck mate!
would love to be able to do this! awesome work
It’s so satisfying. I want to start right away. I sit at home by myself. Feels like I’m in my own private prison. I’m a painter but nobody seems to be interested in my work. I love and own weapons and I love working with my hands. This would be a purpose filled practice for me. My question is, are these the only tools that will work for this type of engraving? Would a Drexel tool work? If so what type of bits would I need?
Great job bro. I wish I had your talents.
Wooow this is an insane talent
Class A work as far i can tell but I'm not an expert. keep up the great work.
Dude that’s awesome! I just came across this videos but hope your page has your stuff you use.
