Doming Block, Star Profile — Wooden Dapping Tool, 7 Sizes, Jewellery Metal Forming

Doming a star with round tools is a compromise; this block is cut for the job. Seven graduated 5-pointed star cavities let you take a flat blank and give it depth, moving down the sizes until the profile suits the piece — the same principle as our dapping and doming guide describes, applied to a shaped cavity.

Because the block is machined from solid wood there is no metal-on-metal contact to print tool marks into copper or silver, so even pre-finished blanks come through clean. The cavities sit in two rows for quick size selection, and the block asks for nothing more than a dry shelf between uses.

• Features seven 5-pointed star cavities in a range of graduated sizes.
• Machined from a solid wood block to prevent marring on non-ferrous metals.
• Forms clean, consistent star profiles in sheet metal without metal-on-metal contact.
• Arranged in two rows for clear size selection at the bench.
• UK-stocked; we aim to dispatch orders placed before 2pm UK time, Monday to Friday, the same working day.
