So - if you are in need of these, and you are going to be coming to the store - well - there you go! If you are coming only for these items, it's a good idea to call ahead and make sure we didn't sell the last ones to a busload of beady ladies who drove in from Sault Ste Marie just yesterday. We can order more for you, or put stuff aside. (Contact info at the end.)
s24373 Tools - 2.5 inch Bench Block - Steel (1) $13.25
Steel bench block (not stainless!) - for hammering wire, i.e. for flattening and hardening wrapped wire clasps, etc. 2.5 x 2.5 x 1 inch thick. Heavy. 1 lb, 6 oz - so we won't be mailing this one. Like many tools, comes with a layer of oil to prevent rusting - actually - this one came swimming in oil. Wipe off before use!
Steel ring mandrel. Case-hardened steel. Marked with half sizes from size 1 to 16. 13.5 inches long. Heavy!
The essential starter set - 8 dapping tools, with matching block - covers most needs. Cavity sizes are 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 20, 28, 28 mm, with corresponding punches. Block is smooth on the reverse - so use it as a bench block. Nice wood stand that you will actually use. Polished steel.
s24385 Tools - Small Disc Cutter - 7 Sizes (1) $61.15
Small disc cutter - 7 sizes from 1/8 to .5 inches. Cut perfect circles every time without sawing. Holes have been drilled, reamed and honed for clean cuts. Great combined with dapping punches for domes, bead caps, etc. Oil-quenched tool steel - drawn - for hardness and durability. Bottom base is case-hardened and ground. Slip the sheet metal into the slot on the side, hammer the punch through. Cuts metal up to 14 gauge. Block is 2 inches square.
Small disc cutter - 5 sizes from .5 to 1 inch. Cut perfect circles every time without sawing. Holes have been drilled, reamed and honed for clean cuts. Great combined with dapping punches for domes, bead caps, etc. Oil-quenched tool steel - drawn - for hardness and durability. Bottom base is case-hardened and ground. Slip the sheet metal into the slot on the side, hammer the punch through. Cuts metal up to 14 gauge. Block is 2 x 2.75 inches.
Handy work holder - featuring clips mounted on a weighted base to act as ... a third hand, or a second pair, if you will. Some assembly required.
Isn't this just the cutest little anvil you ever did see? Case hardened steel. All sorts of uses, from shaping, hammering, bending. 1 lb.
It's worth the trip to come in - we're open 7 days a week, there are restaurants close by (including our fave - Cajun Bajan), free parking, and other shopping in the area (including a Canadian Tire and a Rona, if you need to send your husband away to amuse himself. Actually, there's a movie theatre and a pub too if you really want to shop).
We're not hard to get to - and we're not downtown so the traffic isn't so freaky for those of you who are from outside the greater Toronto area and just can't take the downtown traffic conditions and swear you'll never drive there again. (I was downtown earlier this week, the only roads that weren't under construction had movies being shot on them.)
Hope to see you soon! (Wear some of your jewelry when you come - we LOVE to see what you make!)
