- Pneumatic engraving handpiece DIY:
Almost done with it. I've modified a few things to make it easier if you don't know how to thread with a tap and die. I'm not very good at it, haven't done much of that. Hope this video helps and I'll be posting the finished piece soon. This one I've made with the help of Rick Alexanders plan.
I finally made a new handpiece, same concept, works great. My new handpiece in the link below.

Nice. Good work
Nejc Mazej thank you
how to put up from engraving hand to compresor?
What are your pump specifications
Hi, could be possible release the plans, i am really very interested to do this useful tool.
Wgen Gen I’ve made another one recently, here are a couple of links, my newest one and another better detailed series by Rick Alexander. He shows you step by step on how he makes his.

Kinda curious about the measurements on the parts.
I’ll post them for you shortly.
Hello sir! is the air from the compressor sucks the piston or pushes the piston?
It only pushed air until I modified it. It sucks and pushes the air now.
@@JRyderEngraving thanks
Is two functions
If you made me a engraver how much would you charge me
do u sell the handpieces?
Sorry about he late response, I just recently got back into making videos on my channel.. I don’t make handpieces to sell. I’m still using the first one I made.
I did the same thing,But the hammer is still standing, not turning upwards.when I plug the steam.
YONG Toshiro do you mean the piston? The piston should be slightly smaller in diameter than the barrel. Another factor could be that the inside of your barrel might need to be reamed(smoothed out) after using a drill bit to make your barrel, the drill bit can leave the inside rough. If you don’t have a reamer, try using sandpaper to sand the inside. I’m in the process of finishing another handpiece, I’ll demonstrate what I’m talking about for you.
I made piston, it smaller than the stem diameter.I have smoothed the inside surface,But it still does not work.
YONG Toshiro ok...how about the vent holes. Your quick change graver holder. The part that’s inside the barrel, should end midway of the vent holes.
Your spring:
It shouldn’t be too stiff, more on the softer, springier side. Play with different lengths.
Your compressor, did you modify it to push and suck the air back and forth so the piston will hit the quick change back and forth, like a jack hammer?
I use a variety of springs,soft, hard different.My air compressor,only one direction out.It does not suck back.
YONG Toshiro ok that’s your problem....you have to modify your compressor to push and pull the air. That’s what makes the piston move back and forth.
I wonder if you can use a tattoo gun it’s the same principle? Maybe I’d like to know.?
Reaper Game over it is the same principle. I’ve never used a tattoo gun. The pistons on these pneumatic machines are probably a little heavier than a tattoo gun.
I was thinking the same thing. A rotary tattoo gun would probably be perfect, might need a stronger motor. You can alter the plunge debth on rotary machines by deepening the valleys in the plastic thing that drives the needle back and forth. Even if it didnt work adapting the mechanics might be interesting. the smooth action of a rotary machine
So how much for one
I’m sorry I don’t make them anymore.
Why doesn't the air come out of the handle hole?
It should come out. Is your piston hitting the top of the graver holder on the inside? The top of the graver holder should fit inside and stop between the holes. The piston should hit the top of the holder. If that’s off then it won’t work properly
This video shows the piston hitting the top of the graver holder, hope this helps.

@@JRyderEngraving I got the handle from a friend as a gift. he said that the handle was fine but when I tried it at home it didn't work only the wind came out. he told me to send it back, but he looked busy. he said he would make a new piston. Do you think the problem is with the piston or spring?
@@mulanjamilah7849 Does the air get sucked in and out? Or does it come out in a constant stream?
@@JRyderEngraving when I step on the pedal the air comes out of the small hole in the handle
