Video Review... This is a GOOD video!

Scripture Damascus With Raymond Rybar

Any of you folks who are working with Damascus... you need to see this video! Gene sent me a preview copy, and I have to say that it changed the way I look at a lot of things in relationship to putting detail (pics, words, etch) into damascus.

Its always been a ton or work to put letters, words, etc into a billet. Ray has done a fantastic job of presenting what I consider new and insightful information on how to do it.

Don't let the Title fool you! Although the video deals with "scripture" the techniques and methods can be used for whatever you want in your steel.

Great Job and Kudos to Ray and Gene for this great video!

Mine is on the way. I met Ray in 2006, and was blown away with what he was doing.

I just watched the video and and agree that it is very well done and informative. Great job to all concerned.

He was above my novice abilities toward the end and I got lost with the twisting of the final billet. The twist appears quite long. I understand a few other ways of exposing a mosaic pattern but seem to have hit a mental block with this one. Can anyone help put this in perspective?

Just got the info for Batson's bladesmithing symposium at Tannehill State Park in Alabama this coming April 9-11 and Raymond Rybar is listed as one of the demonstrators for damascus.
