Question Hello, first time posting

My name is Dave Kaczynski I am A jewelry Designer from Montpelier,Vermont my shop is called "Khaos Designs" . I am Brand New to engraving. Just received some sharpening Jigs and Stones from Steve L a week or so ago.
and I am Almost done reading James Meek's book on the subject.

I wish I had the capitol to invest in some Air Tools and the like; However I am trully Interested in starting from the "old School",where engraving has its roots, and moving towards the Modern Technology".

I Looking for some advice with respect to Hand Engraving Tools or should I say Engraving Tools Using the Push or Hamer and chisel Technique. Any suggestions Where I might get some of the "Long Chisels"I've seen pictures of and heard described by some other hammer and chisel engravers?

I would greatly appreciated any suggestions for a newcomer.
Any other sources of Info, Books, Websites,and feedback would be helpful
Thanks again
Dave Kaczynski/Khaos Designs
