That is a nice, big dark engrave. How long did it take to engrave?

About 2 hours all in. I added the bottom detail later.

Just curious, what letter is that and where did you get the file? Great contrast and I love the grain on the wood.

Old English O. You can find them on google or anywhere really.

The hand is originally called Blackletter - this particular O is in Blackletter Textura.
Folks started calling it Old English when they thought old English was written in it - it mostly wasn’t but the name stuck so when fonts were created off the hand most of 'em got named some version of that :slight_smile:
