========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm ]======== Hi all, on Orchid! B"H I have been asked many times to describe what a "pre-ground" graver is. When you go into a tool supply store, you will see gravers with a roughly bevelled front-edge. You cannot work with these at all, they have to be then shaped and hand polished on "Emery" and "Polishing" papers...I once went to a client and his words were "why can't I cut with these gravers?"...I took one looked at them and replied "no wonder you can't...they have not been shaped for any setting or cutting purposes". You will not find ANY GRAVER in any tool outlet ready for immediate usage...I am offering you this priveledge in making available this finely tuned graver for instant use...no addtional shaping is necessary!!!!! Along with these 5 gravers all in the "Onglette" shape..you will receive special instructions on how each graver is to be used. Not too mention 156 pages of setting notes on a CD, a seperate CD video (of my own making) on how to grind these little times! Not too mention more typed essays on different aspects of setting USING GRAVERS..Each graver will arrive to your bench in a seperate container signifying it's potential use, no guessing for you, at all! Every jeweller must have a set on his/her bench they all come in handy...but they must be shaped beforehand!. if not, they will sit and not be serving their sole pupose. Gravers must be hand-ground or modified, and not by any machine. With out this delicate hand carving/shaping no graver can effectively be used...All engravers/setters learn this one year process in their apprenticeship years, but never teach this to anyone. My set of 5 Onglette gravers is only $109.75, plus a addtional fee for postage of only $10.00....by Paypal....(enuf said!)..
