Now that I'm working with brass, I'll have to add a few more tools to the pile.
- Set of Needle Files - Half round, full round, wedge, triangular, square, diamond... any profile you can think of, it's here. These came from my grandfather and I look forward to using them again.
- Jeweller's Pliers (more specifically, round nose pliers) -- this is for holding or bending wire without leaving a mark on it - the jaws are completely round, like a pair of chopsticks.
- Wire Cutters - for rod stock
- Medium files - half round, round, and flat.
- Sparker
- Propane Torch - (I will be doing my annealing out on the balcony)
- Hacksaw with floating blade
- (Not Pictured) A metal or glass can for quenching hot brass. Anything watertight and not plastic will do.
