Aztec Calendar engraving

[weatherfield57]

What type of wood are you using?

@weatherfield57 Hi - the wood used for the Aztec Calendar in this engraving is called Alder. It's a medium colored wood, and when engraved gives the best contrast between the wood and the design.

@epilogben Ok, is it coated with cab acrylic lacquer? Thanks

@weatherfield57 I'm not sure if the lacquer is cab acrylic, but yes there is a lacquer on the alder sheets we use. The lacquer coating allows you to wipe away any smoke or debris that sticks to the piece during engraving or cutting. Without the coating you'd have to sand away the smoke that stains the wood.

LOL..Don't ya think you might have cut out the middle (2.5 minutes of total boredom) of the engraving process?

I find it hard to believe you lured 10,000 folks watch this sleep aid.

A for effort, D- for substance.
