Sinusoidal Forming Stake, 16 Inch — Large Hardened Steel, Highly Polished, Heavy Duty
Shape large, flowing curves with precision using this 16-inch sinusoidal stake, designed for creating smooth, continuous wave forms on substantial metal pieces.
What it does
This substantial forming stake allows you to expertly manipulate sheet metal into elegant anticlastic and sinusoidal shapes. Its continuous, gentle wave profile guides your hammer blows to create seamless undulations across larger workpieces, ideal for vessels and statement jewellery. The hardened steel construction ensures durability, while the highly polished surface prevents unwanted marks from transferring to your silver or other non-ferrous metals.
How to use it
- Secure the tang firmly in a sturdy vice or stake holder.
- Gently tap sheet metal over the curve with a forming hammer.
- Wipe clean after use to maintain the polished finish.
Who it's for
Professional silversmiths and holloware artists requiring extended reach for large-scale anticlastic forming will find this indispensable. It’s also a valuable tool for armourers and sculptors shaping non-ferrous sheet metal, replacing multiple smaller stakes for creating fluid, sweeping curves in their work.
