azrider Report post Posted March 18, 2011 Quite a few threads have mentioned modifying craftools to get them to work better. I know with all of my smooth faced bevellers and pear shaders, I have polished them quite a bit to smooth them out. With the bevellers, I have also rounded the sides to make a rounded face that is easier to walk. Just curious if there are some “common” modifications that people make to craftools? What do they accomplish? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azrider Report post Posted March 29, 2011 Read an older thread that talked about removing the chrome, or using sand paper and files to fix tools. Does anyone have any pictures of the results? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghstrydr164 Report post Posted March 30, 2011 By the time you remove the plating that makes it very difficult to grind or file. you might as well buy some stainless bolts and rod to copy the craftool with the modifications you want. Cut to the length you feel comfortable with and sell the Craftool to cover the cost of the bolt.
