Members KGV Posted October 10, 2014 Members Report Posted October 10, 2014 Hi all! Looking for this specific tool http://kawazairyo.com/?pid=65848611 or something that will let me flatten the edges like this one does, but preferably in the states. This site doesn't ship outside Japan from what i can tell, but I need a tool like the one pictured. I know a few of them are just edge creasers and a few flatten the edge fully, i'm looking for something like the second one, pictured below. Specifically this variation http://img02.shop-pro.jp/PA01006/392/product/65848611_o3.gif?20131027192435 Any help is appreciated! Thanks all! Quote
Mike Craw Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) Hey KGV! Since nobody has jumped in with a source, I might suggest that you could make one from a standard push edge creaser. With a hand grinder and some really fine wet/dry sand paper, you could knock down the inside cutter edge from the curve of the guide edge in, and polish a flat surface. It isn't the tool you want, but I'd guess it might serve the purpose.

Moderator bruce johnson Posted October 11, 2014 Moderator Report Posted October 11, 2014 That would be easy enough to make up from a creaser. I repurpose creasers into push beaders, bevelers, thread countersinks, etc. This fall right in there. I have several sizes of creasers and the tools to do it with.
