Thanks John! Very nicely presented!

Beautiful work John, and a method derived from impeccable logic. I like the way you go back to first principles to tackle a problem and, where there's room for improvement, devise your own method, rather than just following accepted practice.

thank you sir

[@howardbent5437]

That's pretty neat! 👍

Wouldn’t thinning the material cause it to react more to temperature changes?

[@gpolykra]

What kind of tool is featured in the video when you do the embossing? Is that a cable I see hanging on the right?

Hello Mr. Cook. Well done video. Really appreciate you sharing your time and knowledge. Few questions... (1) Do you use an engraving tool specifically for engraving metal to cut your groove? And (2) Do you score a straight line in the metal to use as a guide before making the channel? Thanks again for the great ideas.

Hi. I dont scribe a line. i use the edge of the slot as my guide. As for tools I have a whole lot of engraving tools. If you want to see my engraving page google www.johncookengraving.co.uk

Great explanation JC
Do you do it free hand? I would be scared incase I slipped.

[@johncook9040]

Yes free hand
