For beginners the aim of the course is to learn from scratch how to engrave/carve metal. The course will give you a very basic introduction to engraving. You will learn how to set up a tool, how to transfer a design from paper to metal and make the first cuts. You will have some time to practise and then with your own tools continue to practise at your own pace.
