Ball-End Sgraffito Tools

These have Balls which are about .093, or, Ninety-Three-Thousanths of an Inch in Diameter.

I have Carbide Balls also in diameters of .0787, or, Seventy Eight Thousanths of an Inch, and also .059, or, Fifty Nine Thousanths of an Inch.

If there is a size you need not represented among these, let me know.

Even smaller 'miniature' Loops for Trimming or Carving

Image showing some 'miniature' series "C" Loops - far left being a usual sized candidate, and, graduating to to the right, some smaller exemplars, with finally the smallest I can do.

Far right is sharpened to be a Carving Tool rather than a Trimming Tool.

All in all, there is a range of size in the 'miniature' Series Loops of all shapes, whether for Trimming, or, for Carving uses.

Acute 'corners' of those Loops having 'corners' to their bends -

Acute

corners' are sometimes wanted for Trimming or Carving, where, usually, a more roundish 'corner' is prefered. Far right, while it happens to be the smallest one shown, has about the tightest or most crisp 'corners' I am able to do, and please do not ask me for this unless you definitely need it to be so, since it is very difficult and tedious for me to do.

Image showing some Handles -


Left, being a "Standard" Handle, well suited to any full size or 3/4 size Loop.

2nd from left, a long, slender Handle, suited for any of various small carving Tools or Sraffito Points

4th from left, a very slender Double-Ended Handle, suited for any combination of the smallest Tools as one may wish to have together for how one Works.

5th, of far right, a not-yet-named medium size Handle very well suited for any ofthe 'Solid Tools', or, for the 3/4 size Loops or Carving Loops.

Smaller 'Double-Ender' Tools

Bear in mind, that similar Tools for Carving or other delicate fine Work are available, including those having very small Cutters other than Loops. Grid Lines are One Inch schedule
