Rosette Cutter

Recommended Posts

Does anyone have instructions for sharpening rosette cutters? I have two punches from Weaver that are woefully dull. Thanks, 

Randy

Send them back to weaver & have them sharpened.

I sharpen the inside edges with a round diamond file. Once i have a bit of a bur all the way around I buff the out edges on a sisal wheel with black compound to take that bur off. I go back and do the inside with a hard felt or small leather wheel on a Foredom (Dremel works on lower speed) to take out grit marks near the edge, and buff the outside again to clean up any straggler burring.

@bruce johnson, what grit do you have in the file? It looks like it's 1/4" diameter. Thanks, 

Randy
