Thank you!
Which would you suggest starting with as a trial and how large a burnisher? 130????
I am going to see if I can find some tiles at Home Depot to play with....

Depends on how much detail you'll have in the engraving.
I'd say a .010 would be a good starting point. It's a bit wider cut than a standard diamond graver, making it good for most applications and if necessary, you could use multi-line fonts to fatten up the lettering.

Being that I don't own photograve :-( , it will probably be my WTC sample to start.
Talk about detail, you can almost count the windows on the towers!! 8-O

I don't know how PhotoGraV would benefit a rotary engraving project, unless you were saying it's a better job for a laser engraver.

I don't know either.... just thought it might give more detail somehow. I haven't tried working with photos on the rotary so have no idea what to expect.
Heck, YOU'RE the Stunt Engraver, not me! ;-)
