Tools used for New Beginnings


I'm not sure if these images can be enlarged on here but the four files are what I used on my bone carving. The top 3 are very fine rifler files 00 or 000 cut I think.
The bottom one is a jewellers file. Tapered round.


The 2 gravers are for cleaning up your lines and getting into the corners to make sharp clean edges. They are home made.








A cheap set of Stanley needle files are good for removing bone as they are coarser than the jewellers and rifler files






Of course the bastard file. I use a half round and a flat. Good for removing larger quantities of bone. Especially shaping the bone.
