Hi Anno...my wee 'gem'.
The Engraver was the original make of machine I trained on...before learning to hand engrave. If I were to try for a new one it would have cost all of my initial set up costs. £1.500 ish!!!. I am starting my homebased workshop at the moment...I will be selling original handcrafted jewellry. The engraver does a whole heap more than engrave pendants if you are clever enough and use your imagination. I have an abundance of that. I will sell courses to all community groups in my area and teach people the basics. I intend to hand pick those with a flare and passion to eventually open a craft shop run by and for the local community...selling jewellry and allied crafts. It is a big idea...but a 'doable' one and I am soooo committed to it. It won't make me hugely wealthy...but that's not why I am persueing the venture.

I love talking about it so feel free to fire away with the questions. I will be able to show you some of the things I can do with the IM3 very soon.

Thanks again Anno.

Wee gem, here. LOL
I can't wait to see some pictures! Sounds like you have a great plan for using your newest tool. Hey, don't set a limit on what you can bring in finacially! I happen to believe that you will make millions with this new machine.

The 'wee gem' is a term of endearment over here Anno...and an 'in' joke with me being a jeweller/silversmyth. We will see about the million, eh?? The engraver is a great investment though.
