i'll have to try that!  i have a friend who is a manicurist and i've been
looking for a good pair of clipper instruments.  do they leave a flat edge?

Not really, it goes kinda concave into the center. I leave a little excess and
then shave it down with an x-acto knife to get that smooth edge - otherwise it
gets kinda rough and white-ish. That's why I said I use it to lop off large
chunks - like on the axe thing - to take off the spike on the one side and the
blade on the other.

there are certain dental instruments i'd like to get my paws on for • customizing!

i've come to trust my dexterity with a good sharp blade more than most
more elaborate tools.  _my_ tool set?  x-acto makes a deluxe (wooden) boxed
set with a broad selection of blades (many different types), saws, and
files. of course the blades need to be replaced after a certain amount of
use.  a dull blade spells doom!

Yeah, I got that same boxed set years ago for wood carvings, it's great.

I've wrecked more fingers than ABS with a dull blade, I must say! Removed large
chunks of flesh and fingernail more than once.
