The Channel Scraper Tool for violin, viola, and cello.
The Channel Scraper is used in the place of or in conjunction with gouges
to shape the concave surface (channel) above the purfling.
| This
is
a
PROFESSIONAL
quality tool that yields PROFESSIONAL
results.
This CUSTOM MADE tool measures 3/8"x 1"x
2
1/2". The HIGH SPEED STEEL blade is
removable
for sharpening and shaping to the desired channel profile. The photo
shows
a portion of a partially finished maple violin back with the channel
cut
with this SOLID BRASS tool. The scraper
cut
is guided by following the outside and top of the plate edge. The
clever
design of this scraper will allow cutting in either direction. This
allows
the violinmaker to change the cutting direction as the wood grain
changes.
The result is a consistent channel around the whole plate. This is one
of those tools that you will wonder how you built without it. Made in USA
