Melissa and et all!

    I was just a few hours ago speaking with my very own teacher, he is
    only a young 70! He did use an Onglette #2 for Bright-Cutting as I do
    now. But he also left it heavy on the LEFT side for Bright-Cutting on
    the left side, I use it on the Right-Side only. I am more comfortable
    for the Right-Side...anyone wish to view my "Right-Sided" gravers????
    you will see how they can be manufactured EASILY, trust me! I have
    two easy to view and understand pictures. He also used different kinds
    of gravers for cutting under bridges & over lays with setting
    diamonds. 

    Before he a had a Flex-Shaft (circa <1940) he had to use a "Pump
    Drill", I have his very own and a picture of one. With many kinds of
    gravers he had to cut open each and every hole by hand...burs were
    not used then in Ireland, he was an ..."Irish Setter"...:>) but
    worked in Haddon Garden, London England, in the Piccadilly Street
    area! 

    I am to give a seminar workshop with "Metalwerx" on Feb.4-5-6, 2005
    just on Graver Sharpening and Pave' and along with this the
    self-same topic stated as above....Gerry!
