29. Gourds

Engraving on gourds can create beautiful decorative items and musical instruments.

Tips: Use fine-point diamond bits for detailed designs, and ensure the gourd is dried and cleaned before engraving. Pro tip: Carbide burrs can also work well on this material, offering versatility for your designs.

30. Eggshells

Delicate and intricate designs can be achieved on eggshells for decorative pieces.

Tips: Use very fine-point bits and gentle pressure. Work slowly to avoid cracking the shell.

31. Soap

Engraving on soap bars can create personalized gifts or decorative bathroom items.

Tips: Use fine-point bits and light pressure. Soap is soft, so handle with care to avoid breakage.

32. Chocolate

Engraving on chocolate can add a personalized touch to edible gifts and decorations.

Tips: Use fine-point bits and work quickly. Keep the chocolate cool to prevent melting.

33. Cork

Cork coasters and boards can be engraved for personalized gifts and decor.

Tips: Use fine-point bits for detailed designs, and engrave with light pressure since cork is a soft material. Pro tip: Ball tips are also recommended for cork. It’s best to work gradually to avoid "disintegrating" the material, as it can sometimes lack density.

Vintage shellac records can be engraved to create unique art pieces.

Tips: Use fine-point bits and gentle pressure. Handle with care to avoid breaking the disc.
