Ray Cover explaining the geometry of a Scandinavian style graver.

Ray Cover is a master engraver with over 30 years of engraving experience. I recently took his watch engraving class and he introduced us to a style of graver I had never seen before.

That’s two simple but effective tips. Thanks! These tips really help new engravers to simplify the process.

I took Rays engraving class. I learned so much. If you have any interest in engraving, Rays the guy you want to go to. I went to another engraving class a few years ago and did not learn a fraction of what Ray teaches. Ray is not only a great teacher, but a great human being. Thanks Ray!

Well said. I agree completely.

Thank you

[@handgravyr]

it's more of a Scandinavian way of doing it, it's been done for probably 100 years, it's done on flat gravers too :-)

[@voightengraving]

Thanks for all of the great info. It’s new to a lot of us. We are happy to learn about it.

[@voightengraving]

Yes. That’s it
