You weren't kidding, were you?

Basically, it's a wire brush.

And it can also be used to give a "grain" to balsa wood. Jim |

Very nice work! When I had used pine dowelling to model a Russian house, I first cut V-notches with a heavy knife before filing the notches to a rounded profile. It saved some filing work, compared to filing-out entire notches. |

Jim. I Googled "Maham Tower" for some ideas. Almost half of the Images were your model. |
