Fretz Progressive Stake F-2B Sharp Convex Fluting Stake

The Fretz Progressive Stake F-2B is the second stake in a three-step progression used to develop sharp, defined convex fluting in formed metalwork. Designed to follow the F-2A Lining Convex Fluting Stake, the F-2B advances the forming process by bringing the high points of convex flutes into sharper, more pronounced relief. The full progression begins with the F-2 Doming Stake to establish the initial form, continues with the F-2A to introduce convex curves without sharpness, and then moves to the F-2B — and finally the F-2C — to refine and crisp the flute definition with each successive step.

Features

• Second stake in the Fretz Progressive Fluting sequence (F-2A → F-2B → F-2C)
• Sharpens and deepens convex flute high points established by the F-2A
• Used in conjunction with the F-2 Doming Stake as the foundation form
• Designed for professional metalsmiths and jewelers working with fluted forms

Notes

This stake is intended for use as part of the complete Fretz Progressive Fluting series. For best results, work through the progression in order: F-2 Doming Stake, F-2A Lining Convex Fluting Stake, F-2B Sharp Convex Fluting Stake, and F-2C. Using the stakes out of sequence may not produce the intended flute definition.
