It took me a while to figure that out, everything else left those fractures and no depth. <hr /><a name="a3844_25"></a><p><b>From: Engravin' Dave (DATAKES)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.25">#25</a>]<br /> 25 Jun 2006<br /><b>To: gingem</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.21">#21</a>] 25 Jun 2006</p> <p>Hi Bill,</p> <p>Thank you for sharing. I use this technique on one-of-a-kind larger pieces as well, primarilly because I want it to look it's best and am able to charge for the extra time it takes.</p> <hr /><a name="a3844_26"></a><p><b>From: Zonas</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.26">#26</a>]<br /> 27 Jun 2006<br /><b>To: gingem</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.21">#21</a>] 27 Jun 2006</p> <p>Our steps are very similar, only I don't turn the item upside down. I have made a bracket (similar to an upside down T) that I can slide my dry erase marker up and down for marking. With a ruler this lets me jot down the height I drew my lines at so when I apply the resist its at the same exact location. I agree with you on the look. I'm looking into using a laser for 'cutting' my resist on some large flat orders I do, but I will still sandblast them. For flutes, bottles, etc. I have a old cylindical engraver with a diamond cutter - to me that this is the quickest way to do flutes/wine glasses. I can have a set done in about the same amount of time it takes the computer to boot up. Cutting with the diamond gives such a nice cut that I'm able to offer many color fill choices.</p> <p>Zona</p><hr /><p align="center">Show messages:  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.1">1-3</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3844.4">4-23</a>  24-26</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2025 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
