Engraving on Marble

[Clara Carter]

My husband-to-be is a wonderful artist! He has decided that he can engrave on Marble. He would like a small handtool. Is there any handtools out there that will allow him to engrave on marble?

He would like to make several different designs all unique but I am not sure what it is I am suppose to buy!

PLEASE HELP! NEED IDEAS! BIRTHDAY IN JANUARY!!

Clara, welcome to the Creek!

Let me start by saying that I don't know anything specific about engraving marble, but I remembered coming across this website that had diamond engraver bit sets that fit a standard Dremel tool. Here's their website, it should get you started on the right foot!

Clara,

Welcome to SMC!!!! :D

If it is hand tools you're looking for to enable the future hubby to hand carve with? Then may I suggest to ask this in the hand tools forum so your responses would be more plentiful. ;)

Just trying to direct you to get the most "hits" for your question. :D
