Default Dvd

Steve create a lot of innovation and a lot of easy tools to do the engrave more simple.
It miss to create a DVD for show and explain all technics (background, sharpening, gold inlay, bulino...).
What do you think about this idea?
Are you ready to buy it?
Perhaps if it have a lot of demand, the DVD coming soon ;-)

Well I just did a dvd.

I put about three weeks hard work and materials into it and a lot of hassle and headache. So far I have made about $1,200 for my efforts. It sounds like a good idea on the front end but there is no money to be made by it unless you are a major movie company releasing a popular film on dvd.

Now that enough copies are out that folks are copying them for friends or renting them sales have slowed to about one a month.

Roland,

I hope I can able to understand your post.

I've been waiting for a long time for such great stuff from Europe, I like the European style of your engraving.........so much. I reserve one Roland, together with your books so as to save some shipping , sign for me please.

Write some code on your DVD to prevent copy, it happened everywhere in this world, not only in China, but also in USA, just as what Ray said.....

When will it available?

Zernike

It will a pleasure to meet you.
You look the Lindsay's tools are very easy to use and have a lot of variation of power.
Why not a DVD! It is a lot of work to make that. I must contact few person to make it but in first I must do a scheme to the planification of work.
