wing dividers

[silverwingit]

I got disgusted with my Springfield/Tandy divider. It's longer than I need and the legs flex. The steel doesn't want to hold a good point.

I am delighted with these smaller, German-made dividers from the jewelry industry. They are very heavy-duty, well made and have nice sharp points. They also fit into my hand much better than the larger ones. Priced nicely, too.
