Can I engrave writing in wood with this tool and have it come out looking like my handwriting?

I would think so I used it to clean up small fiberglass blisters on boat 1/2 wide and deep max may take a long time to cut through lots of area on wood may need more abrasive bits?

I am no expert on engraving, but the blade should be engravable. I am not sure but the handle, I think, wouldn't be

You may engrave metal with any diamond point bit. This assortment is more for carving than engraving so, you may be better off buying a set of diamond tip bits. A carving bit will only slide over the metal and not cut into it. I would also recommend a flexible shaft attachment to take some of the weight off your hand if you are doing fine work. Good luck.

Signing with a pen will difficult due to the wood grain. If you use a marker it will bleed into the wood. Option is to laquer the top (or the whole barrel) and sign with a marker. Laquer will make signing easy and prevent it from bleeding into the wood. Another option. Sign with a carpenter's pencil. Later burn the signatures into the wood with an iron.

I returned my Oliver machine I had nothing but problems with it (they shipped 3 different machines and the all had electrical error problems) tech support was horrible. So, I ordered a General CNC Router (almost identical machine) from Wood Craft, still had some problems with electrical errors, but the tech support was awesome in resolving any issues I was having. To answer your question, I have only carved on wood and cast acrylic so far no metals that is on the to do list, there is lots to learn when designing projects. I do not believe that this machine is capable of cutting out shapes on carving, I would think by changing the depth of carving and placing a wood platform under the piece of metal you are cutting, so the bit does not touch the bed of the machine (it will error out if you try to carve to deep it will not allow it to touch the bed).

I was burning a design into the wood and painting it, it's got this thin clear coat to it. I'm sure sharpie would stick but probably rub off over time, I'd sand it and when the weddings over put a clear coat over the signatures that way it's more permanent. Neat idea for a guest book and congratulations

I believe you can, i would take it somewhere like Things remembered or any place that does it, they would be able to tell you there for sure if it can be engraved. Hope this helps!

I love this cartridge. I have made vinyl quoted for wood signs and they turned out wonderful. When you type a word out it is already lined up! Hope this helps you, have fun!

I have used this engraver to engrave my initials on bits for horses. I have to go over and over to be sure it can be seen. If you want it to look really tidy is go with a better model I think. But I have had pretty good luck, for the price anyway

Ye. I don't know if Word has any specific options, but the Windows 8 onscreen keyboard has a setting for handwriting conversion that it can insert into any program.

I have not used my Dremel to engrave anything, but I am sure you can, because of the high speed of the Dremel, also you best make sure that the keys are well secured down so they do not move around.

No. Can't engrave anything, since the screw holding the engraving tip will strip, making the tool, useless.

From what I have read of woodblock printing, I would suggest the T-7 hand tool bundle. It should sharpen most, if not all, of your knives and chisels.

It would be possible but you have to realize the tool vibrates a lot when the blade contacts the wood. As long as your not worried about the finish. It may get marked up if your freehanding it

Hi, We do not engrave. It voids our return policy as well. Best regards Joe

I wouldn't know where you would want to try to engrave it. It would need to have a solid surface of steel, perhaps on the back/bottom of the knife on the opposite side where the blades enclose to OR maybe initials on those end caps. My dad used to carry this exact type of knife and I will continue to purchase this particular one because, just seeing it, reminds me of him AND it's made in the USA.
