If anyone can post a link to a starter package with everything I need it would be great! I guess the package would consist of an airgraver classic with an additional deadblow piston, a foot control, a array of chisels, and sharpening kit with templates and honing stones. I believe everything in my list is everything I need to start engraving... I think! Lol!! If ya guys see anything I missed lemme know please. Thanks in advance for the kit link to whomever can scrounge it up for me I already have a proper vise and aircompressor
HI Keber,

I find Steves L advise always sound.

On the Tools page, this set, at this link ;

http://www.airgraver.com/Hand_Engrav...graving%20Sets

Foot Control Classic or NitroG20™ engraving set w/ sharpener

Choose the Classic hand piece and when you get the set you are ready to engrave and learn to engrave.All that you need to start engraving is there.

I will advise a starters class of 3 -5 days at an engraver near you if you can get one .It makes the start and learning curve a lot easier.Other wise just ask on the forum.
