Otto Frei GRS Hand Engravers Starter Kit

Working with professional jewelers we put together tool kits that would make it simple for students and beginners to get the right tools needed to start working on specific skills in metalsmithing and the jewelry arts. This kit, called the Otto Frei GRS Hand Engraving Starter Kit will get you on the path to great engraving and stone setting results immediately without the investment of a full power hone and engraving system. All parts in this hand engraving kit are compatible with GRS power systems. Use this kit indefinitely by hand and add GRS quick change gravers and parts as needed until you are ready to invest in a power system. Sharpening may be the number one hindrance to learning good engraving skills. This kit includes the Standard GRS Graver Sharpening fixture, a 1200 grit diamond wheel (Use double sided Scotch tape to keep wheel and fixture in place on most benchtops) and the Jura Swiss fine polishing wheel to achieve a professional edge. Also included is the treasured engraving book: The Art of Engraving by James B. Meek. Meek teaches sound techniques of sharpening and hand engraving. Learn the basic techniques of sharpening and hand pushing a graver, then transition smoothly to a GRS power system.
