Mike,
You're right. That's definitely an advanced procedure for pantograph engraving and not one I would recommend, to anyone without a lot of practice, in working without a standard means of depth control.
The fact remains, for someone looking to get their foot in the door, there's a lot of relatively inexpensive pantograph equipment out there.
Many jobs don't require "Stunt Engraving" and I like doing those too. :-) David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri
