18 half round domes starting from 4mm, 5mm, 6mm to maximum 40mm for forming metal discs, thermoplastic, fabric, damp forming leather discs, heat forming eva foams and wood veneer into half domes. Supplied with optional dapping tool.
This high quality solid steel doming block is designed to create gentle curves, bowl shapes or deep half round domes in sheet metal. These can then be used to make bead caps or fixed together to make round or lentil shaped hollow beads as well as adding a three-dimensional element to your jewellery designs.
How to use: Simply place your flat metal shape into one of the larger indentations on the block, place the largest punch against the metal and strike it to start doming. Continue to strike the piece all over using the same sizes, moving the work within the indentation and then use the same technique, working down through the sizes, until your desired curve is achieved.
