Hand Engraving Tools by
Steve Lindsay
Tools for metal engraving, stone setting and pave for jewelers, engravers and metal artists
Improved and innovative engraving tool technology allows every
engraver, jeweler and metal artist
to reach their full potential (see what's new)
  
The AirGraver™ is a self-running, miniature air engine tool using no springs or electricity. Just blowing in
the handpiece will cause it to run. As this is impractical, the handpiece utilizes one of two types of controllers. One controller is a set of regulators that
attaches to an air compressor and a foot pedal. The second option is a PalmControl™ handle that automatically uses the natural palm pressure of the user on the
entire handle to control and vary the power of the tool. Even if a person is accustomed to
 foot
pedal engraving, a few minutes with the PalmControl™ is all it takes to realize the improved responsiveness. The hand is more sensitive than the foot and capable of
subtle corrections. Because the tool is self-contained, there is no constant background noise or vibration from a separate power unit.
Most professional engraving artists and jewelers could probably engrave with any tool and turn out nice work given enough time, however
tools with improved design help make the hand engraving process easier and quicker. The AirGraver is the most advanced system for intuitive ease of use for the
professional or beginning engraver. To discover the difference, enroll, support and learn engraving from hand engraving
centers and schools where all equipment on the market is made available for students to work with. The staff and instructors of these
schools are not paid to sell equipment and therefore are unbiased. They are willing to allow students to decide for themselves what works best for them.

The Lindsay PalmControl can increase the speed of learning compared to foot pedal engraving. This is
because the PalmControl is intuitive and natural in the sense that what is done with your hand is what you get. There is no need to learn to coordinate
continual foot movement to every hand movement.
