Anticlastic Forming Stake — Double-Ended Sinusoidal, Heavy-Duty Polished, Jewellery Tool

Anticlastic work stands or falls on support, and this stake supplies it: two sinusoidal ends carry sheet metal through hammer-formed wave curves without the buckling you get working unsupported. Jewellery and sculptural pieces with complex wave-form profiles can be worked in stages along the profile until the shape comes true.

It is solid steel throughout, with a substantial central block that seats firmly in a bench vice. Both working ends are polished to a high finish so nothing transfers to precious or non-ferrous metal, and the smooth, rounded terminals will not snag or mar a piece as it moves across the tool.

• Solid steel construction with two distinct sinusoidal forming ends.
• Highly polished working surfaces to prevent marking precious or non-ferrous metals.
• Substantial central block provides a stable mounting point in a bench vice.
• Shaped to provide correct support when forming anticlastic and sinusoidal curves.
• Smooth, rounded terminals on each end to avoid snagging or marring workpieces.
