Feb 24, 2017 at 15:00 comment added aaron interesting. those thick ones are new to me. I'd recommend getting some regular ones (for example, stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/Types_of_Tools/Scrapers/…) because they are general purpose and these are the type that can be filed to whatever shape very easily.
Feb 23, 2017 at 14:34 comment added Isaac Kotlicky @aaron Thanks for the advice. I'm considering grabbing these: stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/Types_of_Tools/Scrapers/… stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/Types_of_Tools/Scrapers/… From what I've read they're pretty decent. These will be my first scrapers... Any advice on technique for working in such a narrow space?
Feb 23, 2017 at 14:14 comment added aaron @IsaacKotlicky to an extent, yes. Keep in mind both french curve shaped scrapers, and the fact that you can file a scraper to any shape you please.
Feb 22, 2017 at 23:57 comment added Isaac Kotlicky The cavity doesn't really have a consistent curve... does it matter what the specific curve of the card scraper is?
