First attempts embossing with my MSS lathe

Hi there,
I made a video on the youtube of my first attempts with embossing onto polycarbonate, using a steel stylus.
I bought the MSS lathe last year and have been steadily working on it.
Very pleased with the results so far, though embossing for me seems to make a quiet groove. I had to boost the playback volume on the video.
