Hi, I love the work you are doing. Just a question from someone who has an up-to-now totally unadorned HD: on the right side of the piece: why do you make "dots" around the contours of the leaf, while you pull "lines" in the middle of de leaves? I understand that the areas you want to blacken later need dotted finish, but the outlines of the shapes? Thanks for your reply.
Pretty much just removing material. You could just kind of scratch it out, I just choose to make the removal a little more uniformed. On one of my other bikes, I did a combo of the dotting out areas and scratching away material. The dotting out just looked a little more even (if that makes any sense). My techniques have definitely improved since making this video, but each person is gonna develop their own unique style that they like.... Art, ya know?
Hey dude, sorry for the delayed response. This piece is aluminum so I don't need to worry about rust. On a piece that has the chance for rust, a person could clear coat the piece or yes keep it oiled or get it plated to prevent rusting. Engravers will sometimes color their relief cuts to add contrast to the piece and that helps to prevent rusting in the cuts as well. I'm no engraver by any stretch of the imagination. I just add character to certain pieces on my bikes, and it's kinda relaxing to engrave stuff. And heck, sometimes rust can add character to the piece. It all depends on what you're trying to achieve. 👍🏾🤘🏾
It all depends. Most pieces are totally custom and it's hard to come up with an exact cost for someone. I like to think, "what would I pay for something like this?" That usually gives me a good starting point

hi, can you please help me with exact tools and bit you are using in the video and what should I use to chip the metal deeper?
I'm using a dremel tool with the ball engraving bit. Cutting deeper, I'd use a larger ball bit or make multiple passes. I hope that helps you
This is Awesome work brotha.. does it rust after you cut into the metal or do you coat it with WD-40 or something?..Thanx for the share...

Nice jobb,wich diamond bits using u plssss
Thanks, and sorry for the SUPER LATE response. I'm just using dremel bits, nothing special. This is also aluminum not steel.
Use a smaller bit it will look better.
True.
How much do you charge sean?
It all depends. Most pieces are totally custom and it's hard to come up with an exact cost for someone. I like to think, "what would I pay for something like this?" That usually gives me a good starting point
How much did you take for this piece (which is in video)?
What are you using to engrave
