Looking at MOTM-102 panel ideas, I notice that a popular engraving tool
choice for lettering is the 0.4mm size. For over a year I have been
using the 0.2mm tool exclusively. For a reason I cannot explain, the
actual result of the 0.4mm tool became increasingly bold over time. So
much so that the last panels I made with it are a bit coarse looking.
The letter boldness of the most recent panels I made with the 0.2mm tool
is almost the same as the oldest ones that specified the 0.4mm. If you
are ordering from FPE in the United States, I suggest the lighter 0.2mm
tool. The result is more refined. The MOTM-like Font is DIN 1451,
1-stroke.
