Redrawing some old WBS metal for a project

I’m redrawing some WBS metal and I go to draw in the lower grooves and realize… this is first Gen extrusion… not 2nd Gen

Back to square one

I found some second Gen metal, I never noticed the curve on the older stuff.

While I was downstairs I found the mating piece for the second Gen

Getting better with the Gorton engraving machine

10 Lessons I’ve learned about engraving by hand:

1 – CLAMP CLAMP CLAMP
2 – Flexible material WILL FLEX WHEN CLAMPED!
3 – Start in the middle of the “A”
4 – 1:1 ratios show mistakes 1:1
5 – Don’t try to “go over” a skip
6 – One letter, one pass.
7 – WD 40 on cutting head
8 – stop are just guides, they stop nothing from moving unless there is a lock on the other side\
9 – The first two “setups” are typically throw aways
10 – don’t beat yourself up, the landing gear is down.

I’ve learned my letter set is a little worn down, thus making some skips and pits a little more noticeable (this is where lesson 4 comes into play)… A new set is a little out of my price range for now.
