engraver Language variant: xylographer Explanation: http://www.wordwebonline.com/search.pl?w=engraver http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formstecher http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formschneider http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/xylograph Low CL for "xylographer" because "xylo" means "wood", and I don't know the material they are working with. |
