Taytools 773673 Cabinet Scraper Burnisher Unhandled High Carbon Steel HRC 62-64 3/8 Diameter x 5 Inches Long
- A cabinet scraper is a simple, old-world tool that has many uses in the modern woodshop. A well-tuned cabinet scraper can remove glue, tame tearout, refining a finish, or put a glass-smooth finish on wood.
- Creating a proper cabinet scraper edge (referred to as a hook or burr) is an important skill to learn and requires a dedicated burnisher. Burnishers are tools with hard, polished rods that form or “draw out” the steel from the edge that is used to form the thin hook or cutting edge.
- This high carbon steel burnisher has a hardness of HRC 62-64.
- This unhandled burnishing rod is very cost effective as no handle is included. Size is 3/8 diameter by 5 inches long.
- Each rod comes with a vinyl tip. A wood handle can easily be added later.
