Burnish Engraving
In this section, we will set up to engrave with a burnishing cutter. Figure 3.3 on the next
page shows the VE-810 spindle with a burnishing cutter and an optional ”EZ Rider“
burnishing adapter.
(Figure 3.3) The VE-810 spindle with burnishing cutter
Burnishing is different than standard rotary engraving mainly because you do not use the
nose cone to set the depth of cut. Burnishing does not actually cut deep into metals;
rather it cuts the lacquered surface off of the coated brass and aluminum material. To
effectively burnish, it is recommended to use an optional ”EZ Rider“ burnishing adapter.
This helps to control the pressure of the cutter on to the material.
Screw the ”EZ Rider“ into spindle. Note that the ”EZ Rider“ will screw in counter-clockwise
looking down from the top of the spindle. Next, insert the cutter through the ”EZ Rider“
and through the spindle so that the cutter sticks out below the nose cone approximately
1/8 of an inch. Tighten the setscrew in the ”EZ Rider“.
