I just realized 6 mins in that he is doing all of this in reverse. That's amazing.

It's sad looking at obsolete arts fading slowly away into dormant history.

[Peter Amsel]

Lead. Lead was used because it was the softest metal for carving, and the cheapest, most available base metal around.

Fantastic! Thank you G. Henle for sharing!

[Colettey Lynn]

Any idea what kind of metal those plates are? steel? stainless?

[Jerry Crystal YU]

Thanks to Finale, Sibelius, Overture, and my printer......I don't need to do this.

[SilverPoyozo]

This makes me feel very ungrateful as a musician who can't read or write musical notation.

Beautiful craft.I hope it passes along to younger generations.

[Barbara McDougall]

now I won't complain about doing Finale

[Steven Reading]

Absolutely amazing and, as a computer typesetter, humbling.

[Benjamin Batonnet]

This must be the most impressive and the most interesting video I have watched on Youtube.

All I can say is: -> *W O W * !!

I wish hand-engraving was still practiced. I would love to do this kind of work!
