Hi, I'm living in Belgium. I'm an engraver (complementary artistical job). I'm looking for the material wich is used in ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA
This material is called Cooper wheel engraving ryti na medi - I'm not shure of the traduction).
The engravings are carried out by a vertical copper wheel, which varies in thickness and size, welded onto a lathe, once powered by pedals and nowadays by an electric motor .
I try to find an old engraver in Ceska Republika who had stopped with his activity and who would accept to give me his old material. So he will be shure that this material, used with love, will continue to work with an artistical way of mening.
If someone know one of those artist engraver, please send me a message. I'm shure that It would be possible to find a solution with trucks who are riding to Belgium to pick it and to bring this material to Belgium.
You know, here in Belgium, it is totally impossible to be able to live only with an artistical activity if you will used those old techniques.
I would particulary appreciate if someone could help me.
Greetings from Belgium.

Hi Eric,
I wonder if anybody reacted to your (very specific) comment?
If not let me know. I don't know any engraver but I know few people doing arty and other interesting stuff so I could try to ask for you.
No promises though.
