Members 5 Spice Posted January 14, 2016 Members Report Posted January 14, 2016 Well, I finally grew tired of using my substandard edge creaser. I thought of shelling out for the Vergez Blanchard model, but just couldn't part with the cash so I decided to make my own. Solid brass construction with beech wood insert. Threaded brass rivets hold it together and knurled brass knob for adjusting the width. Works like a charm and feels miles better that my old "Tandy" creaser. Quote
Members Wicked Welts Posted January 14, 2016 Members Report Posted January 14, 2016 Nicely done! I was considering doing this same thing only starting with a pair of cheap butter knives. I think it's time to give it a go - thanks for sharing. Quote
Members Nuttish Posted January 14, 2016 Members Report Posted January 14, 2016 Were you adapting an existing tool to this purpose or did you fabricate those parts? Nice tool! Quote
Members 5 Spice Posted January 15, 2016 Author Members Report Posted January 15, 2016 Were you adapting an existing tool to this purpose or did you fabricate those parts? Nice tool! Hi Nuttish. I fabricated everything but the knurled knob. I had that laying about in the shop. Quote
Members capsterdog Posted January 15, 2016 Members Report Posted January 15, 2016 Awesome! You are very talented to be able to fabricate something like that. Just great! Quote

fasn8ya Posted February 12, 2016 Report Posted February 12, 2016 can you elaborate more on the difference in using a cheap creaser vs a quality one? Is the end result a lot different? Quote
