Scraping tool

Post by SGluedMyFingers »

Some time ago someone posted a link to little scraping tool that I can't find. It may have been made by Squadron or may have been on some site like digi-key or micromark. Can anyone recommend a scraping tool for removing detail and raised lines flush with the surface?

Like this one?

Handy for removing specfic details from something. Otherwise I just an Xacto chisel.

I wonder if I could make my own version of this one. The other one is the best design I've seen in a while.

You could make one of those out of a small screwdriver on a bench grinder.

If you have a chisel sharpening jig you should be able to make a chisel from soft steel.
