The item is based on an engineers knurling tool used to create a grip on handles. It is fixed at right angles in the lathe tool post on the cross slide and run the required length of the chosen metal to produce a handle grip. prior to hardening or casing some metals. A good variation of sizes can sometimes be found in good engineering tool shops. They come in either single or two wheel variety, obviously the single may achieve the required effect. I use to make brass cannon for display and found a light texturing gave a nice pitted effect after adding a colour infill and polishing.
Great review video Sam, I've just got the Henry Taylor Decorating Elf, and I will have hours and hours playing with it, as the possibilities are endless. Take care Mike

I saw on Facebook that you had received it. Looks like a cool tool. Sam
Thanks, I enjoyed the different effects of the tool.
Neat! I might have to get into texturing.
Great video Sam, I learn something with each video.

Would like to see what it looks like on the side grain. For pens.
When coloring I like to turn the piece by hand and color with the light color first so the color gets in to the depressions. They I turn the speed up to hit the tops with a contrasting color. Cool tool thanks for the tips

Robert I really like this approach-I never thought of it before, but I will definitely try it. Thanks Sam
Enjoyed the video. Going to a hands on workshop on ornaments tomorrow at my club and will have to expose some folks to this tool. Do you see any real difference between the Wagner and the Apprentice version? I got a Ron Brown's Best version from Peachtree WW.

I didn't realize there was even an apprentice version till I did the video and looked at the label. I really don't see a difference other than the size making a different imprint. Rex Burnigham has a really good video on this tool. I keep learning about the tool. Sam
I really like the effect you get. Have to get one of those. After you color them, what kind of finish do you put on them? Do any finishes ruin the coloring?

I find it is best to put the gilt cream on before any type of finish is applied. It will go into the raw wood better. On this bowl I used an oil and just dabbed it on. Other finishes will work, you just have to try. I have not had any problems with shellac or other friction polishes. Sam
The tool creates some very attractive decorations, they would make some excellent pendants. Can you use those felt pens for permanent work or are they just for demonstrating purposes? Thanks James

I use the markers for all sorts of finished products. They are safe and the colors seem to last. It is best if you spray a finish on the surface rather than wipe on something. Sam
Thanks for sharing Sam! Which markers to you like to use?

I have several kinds. I like the ones with a very soft tip. The harder felt tips don't lay down the ink very well and seem to dry up. Sam
What tool rest are you using. Thanks.

I have many different markers. The ones I like best are made by Faber-Castell. I get them from Dick Blick. Sam
The markers are they just common felt tips
