Engraving Timascus




Inserting locating pins into timascus bridge. This is done after engraving and second anodizing . The gold colour of the engraving text is result of quick etching then reanodizing at very specific voltage. The pins are of our own design, made on Citizen R04 lathe. Size 1x1 mm. Pressing them in is an absolute joy!
Background: map of USA, a small tribute to Chuck Bybee and friends from Alpha Knife Supply who made this project possible by providing such an exciting alloy to play with.



Hot off the press... Engraving looking good! Different colour combo, purple and blue, but the colours dance in the light, so it's impossible to nail down.

Pricing details and availability information coming very soon!
