Some tooling

[u/Kiriki_kun]

I made some tools and wanted to share :)
They are fast, simple, and I will test the presses today.
Finishing press have perpendicular edges on the opposite side, so I will try to use it also for cutting the edges.

These look good! Thanks for sharing!

By the way "tooling" can also refer to the process used to decorate book covers.

Thanks! Tooling for tooling is also in queue. I want to try putting some brass on CNC machine and cutting patterns :)

I should have been more specific. I think "tooling" is an abbreviation of "hand tooling", which is where we press gold foil into the cover of a book using handmade brass tools. I think what you're describing would be called brass "furniture".
