You are on an island with some of the world's best engravers so finding some first hand assistance should not be too difficult. In the USA we often have to travel over a thousand miles to meet with other engravers as we did last month in Reno, Nevada. It was about 2,000 miles for me.

There is much to learn here and you will probably make contact with some of the other UK engravers on this site.

Good luck,

Roger
