Hello,
I made a simple gadget that allows to grind gravers with rounded shapes from blanks. Up to four radial stops permit to set start und stop angles. A round bottom graver would require two stops, an onglette or oval graver reqires four stops. The onglette in the pictures has got 120° tip angle, and 60° at the top. It was the first attempt with the new tool.

I put the heel onto the onglette graver with a second gadget I made. I might post pictures of it later. I have overdone the heel width at the top of the graver a bit, which is of no consequence for it‘s function.

Cheers

Ralf
