Saw it last night on the website by accident. Too bad they did not advertise it several months ago to give folks time to prepare and go. A sadly missed opportunity for many! Got to get the word out better.

Schippers has an excellent book out for longrifle type engraving.
Engraving is a lot about practice. 3 to 4 a day for however long it takes you to be proficient imho.
Lots of tutorials / utubes on the subject out now too. Good luck.

I signed up two months ago, long after I saw it first advertised. Good thing too, he has weeks of homework for you to do before the class starts.

My practice drawing is done, my tools are built, I have read the book twice. It should be fun.
