Hi Mark,

Mark if you want to engrave car and bikes parts go for the Nitro G 20.OR the Artisan.

If you want to engrave jewellery,knives, guns etc go for the classic depending on your budget either with a foot control or the palm control.

The classic has adjustments for variable stroke.(hammering) and is a versatile airgraver can do most of the the above.

You will need an engraving vise to hold your work.
You will need a sharpening system either the set of benchstones or the power hone with the laps.

And you will need some graver blanks and the following templates :

The v96 - Red

The universal v II6 - Clear

The Flat & Knife combo - Black

And I will recommend a palm push too.(basic to start with)

Any more advise give us a shout.
