New Lindsay Engraver in Bonnie Scotland

Hi I am Maria, just bought my Lindsay kit and about to set off on the adventure of engraving.

With best wishes from Glasgow Scotland, UK.

Hi Maria -

What did you get? PC, Artisan...? And what are you going to do with it?

From a one-time Kelvinside Academical.

Got an Artisan, and she is gorgeous. What a well made instrument. Spent the weekend building my own spherical vice for £25 and really pleased with it. So its all go. Four of us up here just set up a community forge, we've made a couple of knives and are making 4 axes just now, so the plan is for me to engrave our stuff. Think its going to be one exciting summer. What do you like to do?

Enjoy! Looks like we may be the only two in the UK

Hi Maria,
I have just joined the forum to look for folks in the UK using the Airgraver, and found you

I am thinking about buying the classic Palm control graver, and all the necessary bits and wonder if you could give me a heads up on the import duty?
I know there will be VAT, sometimes there is another duty on top and I would like to know how much to expect if that is indeed the case.

It sounds like you just bought the hand piece which is not that heavy, I am thinking of buying the vise and compressor too which might sound daft but figure I will end up with all the right gear that way and only have to factor in the voltage on the compressor.

All any advise would be most welcome

Hi Jaybee
If you go for the classic either pc or foot control set and a vice you you wont need much to start except a few assorted blanks and 5-7 sets of templates from Steve L.
And you get the best and fastest customer care I can assure you.

Hi SE,

Thank you for your reply. If I am using the forum buttons correctly I think you are in the UK.
If so does the fitting (tube?) fit our UK compressors? or will I need to adapt?
