Engraving a Rock
Intro: Engraving a Rock
It is soon my friends birthday and I wanted to make her something looked good.
STEP 1: Find a Good Rock
Try to get a rock that is fairly flat as this will be the easiest to engrave. Also find a stone that is the right size and shape for what you want to draw.
STEP 2: Draw on Rocky
For this step I printed off the drawing I wanted and then penciled the outline on the rock. You could also draw it freehand. The outline makes it easier to see where to cut.
STEP 3:
Use the right tool for the job. I used diamond headed dremel bits. Which I bought for about £3. I chose the one most sooted to the task and then put it into my dremel 3000.
STEP 4: Drawing Rocky
I then used my dremel to carefully follow the lines I drew in pencil. I had to go over some parts a couple of times.
STEP 5: Rock and Roll
Finished! After this I tried out lots of different designs. :)
