    I used this radius tool to make the domed door for the miniature Burrell I'm making. The door is mild steel and I would not recommend using it on this unless you are very experienced. This tool is really better used with brass.

    I had to finish this with emery and wet n dry, but the domed smokebox door on the Burrell I think looks superb
