This micro forming set provides the specialised stakes and mandrels required for creating small, curved, and domed metal components. The collection of eight polished stainless steel wheel stakes offers a range of profiles for shaping flat rings or tubing into precise domed forms without marring the workpiece.

The set is complemented by four micro-mandrels, including tapered and straight profiles, for forming miniature bezels, loops, and other fine details. The included holder secures both stakes and mandrels in either a vertical or horizontal orientation, offering flexibility for various forming operations. All components are housed in a purpose-built wooden stand, keeping the tools organised and accessible on the bench.

This set is particularly useful for tasks such as doming small discs for earrings, forming bezels for custom settings, or shaping miniature components for scale models.

  • Comprehensive set: 8 wheel stakes, 4 mandrels, universal holder, and wooden stand.
  • 8 polished stainless steel wheel stakes from 10 mm to 19 mm diameter.
  • 4 micro mandrels for fine shaping, with tapered and straight profiles from 2-5 mm.
  • Includes a versatile stake holder for vertical or horizontal tool mounting.
  • Supplied with a fitted wooden stand for organised benchtop access.

Common questions at the bench

What weight hammer should I start with?
For most bench work, 4–8 oz is the sweet spot. Lighter hammers (2–4 oz) suit fine detail and chasing punches; 6–8 oz suits forging and texture work. Avoid anything over 12 oz unless you specifically need a raising hammer.
Can I use this on annealed silver and copper?
Yes — these hammers are designed for non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine, britannia), copper, brass, bronze, and aluminium. The polished face will not transfer marks to clean annealed stock when used correctly. For mild steel work, use a separate hammer.
How should I care for it?
Wipe the face down after each session to prevent any tarnish from work residue marking your next piece. If the head develops nicks, polish them out with fine-grit emery and a buffing mop — a marked hammer face transfers marks to your work.
What is in the box?
One hammer with the head and handle fitted, ready for the bench. Polished faces are protected with a thin oil film — wipe before first use.
