I thought about getting into engraving, but the cost of entry is pretty expensive. A good engraver will set you back some $$$.

True but I think I can get into it for under 2K

Those pictures look impressive for first year engraving students.

These engraving tools can't be that expensive.

LOVE the old Colt style scroll engraving. I have a couple of books on it somewhere, I'll have to dig them out.
