Would anyone here know of some safe way of "straightening" some of the engraving on a Sidkit by chance? The "Made In Austria" on my current receiver is a bit angled upwards, going from left to right (lower on the left / up more on the right). I've thought maybe I could fix the issue with an embossing or engraving tool by trying to even out the lettering by making some near the beginning a bit taller / bringing the lettering near the end lower by adding a bit more engraving to the bottom of the letters, but if there was any other way you guys might know about or would recommend I'd greatly appreciate the help for sure. I know nothing about engraving pewter, or any other metal, to be honest, and really wouldn't know which tool or type of tool would best suit giving this a shot. And I sure don't want to make it any worse, lol. Thanks you in advance for any advice!
