Knife Engraving

[Hendrix92TheUniverse]

nice work, thanks for posting

[brshupe]

What is the tape/paper used to transer the image providing the guide to follow when engraving?

[graphictransfer]

@brshupe Hi, it is called applique film. You can find it on our site or in some office product stores. You can run it through a printer or copier.

anyone noticed hes giving his granddaughter a knife

[graphictransfer]

@Madmij She also hunts and fishes and has gutted a bear and identified all of the parts inside. Most of this she did at her Public School which has 9 grades with a total of 10 students all in one room. She also knows how to compost, how to process fish, how to process Moose meat. She understands where the food on her table comes from and has respect for the animals and the earth.

I would like to send my daughter to that school.

[TheTehgod]

so the engraving pen has little turbine inside??

[graphictransfer]

@TheTehgod Hi, Yes, it has a turbine inside. It turns at about 360,000rpm,which allows the detail.

[sadoxra]

It has a very shrill sound... but also it runs at 360,000 rpms... It must be a very expensive tool... and its consumables too

How easy is to suddenly gone out of your hand? From its powerful rpms I mean

[graphictransfer]

@sadoxra Hi, you can look at the kits on our site. They range in price from $565 to $876. The bits range from $2 each to $5.50 each. Because the tool turns so fast it will never try to jerk out of your hand. You can barely feel it cutting. Let me know if you have any other questions, Carl

[maf3226]

how loud is it? I live in an area where they get annoyed quite quickly if you are found to be "disturbing the peace"

[graphictransfer]

@maf3226 The only noise factor is the compressor. The tool itself would be whisper quiet. If you need help with making a compressor quiet, I will be happy to help you. I cannot give you my number, email, or site here, but you can get it from the video.

...th' best I can do is Dremel...however, I've eaten-up every bit I have on steel...where in Heavens' name can a guy get these kinds of decent burrs...?

[graphictransfer]

@SittingMooseShaman We have the 1/16" shank bits. You can see them on our site which is listed on the video. I'm not allowed to give you my site here. If you need larger shank bits, let me know and I will point you in the right direction.

This reminds me of my dentist haha

[graphictransfer]

@therealn1ceR Hi, it does have that sound, even more so on glass.

[Maafa1619]

I don't want any parts of a tool that rotates at 360K RPM. Thanks, but no thanks.

[Slic3R1]

360 000 RPM O_o

[graphictransfer]

@Slic3R1 Hi, yes 360,000RPM, that is not a mistake. The high speed is what makes it so easy to use. Take care, Carl

[pilus87]

[graphictransfer]

@pilus87 Hey, I'm going to keep going until I can't go anymore.!!!!

[graphictransfer]

You can use it marble, granite, agate, titanium, silver , gold , aluminum, glass, wood, leather, eggs, plastic, and just about any other surface.

$565.00 for the Bare Bones Kit, check out the website.

Diamond bits $4.00ea, carbide $2.00ea, discounts in quantities.

How long they last depends on the surface, depth of cut, etc.

The tool needs 1cfm at 33psi.

@graphictransfer what is that film called that you print and stick on like a sticker

[graphictransfer]

@checkeraka47 Hi, the film is called Applique Film. If you are using an inkjet printer you can use an Avery Full Sheet Clear Label. If you are using a Laser printer or photo copy machine then the stuff we sell is what you need. The Applique Film on our site can be used in any printer or photo copier.

[checkeraka47]

[graphictransfer]

@checkeraka47 Hi, YouTube does not let me type a URL in this reply box. If you search Graphic Transfer you will find us. Take care, Carl
