The GROOVY TOOL is on the move - from New York to Florida to
Michigan,and of course California. The response to this neat
tool for creating grooves with the flex shaft machine has been
gratifying. The tool opens up new dimensions in jewelry and box
design. The cutters may be used to pleat and fold the metal and
to even create tapered forms with both the 60 and 90 deg.
cutters. The tool can follow free form curves, with the master
cut from 1/8" masonite. the limit is your imagination.
For a complete description of the tool and some boxes made with
this tool look up the MASSC web site at http://www.artinmetal.com
and click on the MASSC box for ‘Bench Tricks by Jack Burton’ and
also Boxes. The boxes are about 6 to 7" long; the stone frames
or bezels are “L” sections, which allows one to make large rigid
assemblies for soldering to the cover frames which of course is
another “L” section. The four boxes shown here are just a few of
the forty or more that my wife and I have created over the last
20 years. Contact me directly by e-mail and I will forward a more
complete brochure. Jack Burton
