    Of course I keep gravers for decorative hand engraving and stone
    setting, but ever since getting a gravermach, I'm using gravers for
    all sorts of cutting carving etc. And I've given up a hammer and
    punch for bezel setting, in favor of the gravermach. This, and even
    more important, their sharpening device, change everything about
    using gravers. 

    While I'm on favorite tools, I have to say, Matrix by Gemvision is
    amazing. With no training whatsoever on CAD/CAM at all I was creating
    rings in the first few hours of unpacking the program, and after a
    few months (and still no training) I feel pretty competent, and are
    making some cool stuff. 

    And while I'm raving, I just replaced my Steammaster steamer the
    other day. Yes, it broke down. After 22 years of daily use, by up to
    5 people. 

    As usual, no affiliations with the above mentioned products.
