    Spring loaded cnc diamond drag engraver

    Looking for assistance, plans, instructions, directions, or input for constructing a small spring loaded diamond cnc drag or scratch engraver for the homeshop machinist capable of engraving on flat, curved, or round surfaces? Taig or Sherline Mill. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts & ideas concerning this matter. PS

    Thanks so very much for your design. This is exactly the prototype that I was hoping somebody might have to share. Nicely done!

    I'm looking to find and purchase a 90 and/or 120 degree diamond point, I believe is what the commercial ones use for jewelry, and incorporate this into your design.

    Thanks - You made my day! PS
