Carborundum Wheel Engraving done totally Free Hand and By Eye Sight, No Templates
This method of glass engraving is considered a lost art form today with each engraved piece truly unique and different. Carborundum wheel engraving offers a distinctive look. Every cut is deep etched by hand (depending on the thickness of the glass) with precession into the glass creating detail and sharpness that offers a much cleaner look to the finished piece opposed to the sandblasting. The engraving process consist of a rotating wheel spun on a lathe which spins an assortment of different size carborundum cutting wheels at various cutting speeds depending on the wheel sizes. The engraver would press the engraved piece into the cutting wheels make the intended cut. It takes several cuts to shape and form the letter or design. Each cut is made totally free hand with no guides or templates to follow, the spacing of letters and all cuts is made by eyesight and many years of experience. Each piece is totally unique and different with a custom look unlike any other methods of engraving. Click here to view monogram Styles
