To engrave the compartment lines, I used the exacto knife (a technic I learned a while ago,thx to someone who shared it on the web.) All you have to do is heat slightly the tip of the knife, so, it would bend without breaking. To draw the lines use a ruler or straight edge. From my experience, light draws towards your self repeated several times is much better and accurate, then more aggressive heavy handed once, the tip will dig in and cause uneven groves. When done, I use my thumb nail running it along the grove to get rid of the burr and polish it slightly at the same time. Hope it helps the once who want try the technic themselves.
