My/your tools

[Hobbyinovator]

Here are a few pics of the tools I use for sculpting. Please send some pics of tools you use.
The most used of all my sculpting tools is Citadel sculpting tool.
On shared second place is my MikroMark dental style probe, and my rubber-tipped art-tool. The rubber tipped art-tool is more useful for larger scales than smaller ones.

My small scale sculpting-tools made by"Corte Di Cavanno" ordered from "Michigan toy soldier company". http://www.michtoy.com/MTSCnewSite/supplies_folder/Sculpting/sculpting.html
I use these tools when working in smaller scales, in order to have a practical use for their diversity you need some kind of organizer. I made a base out od Das Pronto. Some of the tool have been used very often some not.

The sculpting Die set no. 1 I use for making buttons, sometimes for making eyes in smaller scales and to make nipples like the ones one my nude busts. I was not so impressed with the two dies who are designed for imprinting metal coats(2 & 4 ring chain-mail).
The round sculpting tools are useful wwhen pressing out sockets for eye balls. The pointed tool is useful when working with eye lids.

Here are some pics of my sculpting tools. Some of the ones have since been replaced for different materials, such as the wooden tool which has been replaced first by a larger brass rod, and now I use a rounded tool made out of Teflon.

Here are the new Teflon tools

The one on the bottom is the only tool used, the other two were experimental

The material:

Teflon? That sounds interesting, something I will check out in the future,
