Novelty engraving device, system and method of operation

A novelty engraving system, comprising:

• a motorized engraver having a stylus section, a motor retained within said stylus section and a engraving head that is rotated by an electric motor, wherein said engraving head extends from said stylus section by no more than one millimeter;
• and
• at least one novelty object having at least one surface of material that can be readily engraved by said engraving head of said motorized engraver.

A method of operation for a novelty engraving system that has an engraving head and a motor for rotating the engraving head, said method comprising the steps of:

• having the engraving head be selectively positionable between a retracted position, where said engraving head is not exposed, and an extended position, where said engraving head is exposed, wherein said engraving head is biased into said extended position by a spring that provides predetermined bias force;
• and
• providing a malleable surface that can be engraved by said engraving head when said engraving head is pressed against said malleable surface with a force less than said predetermined force.
