Peter....it's getting on for 8 months ago, I will look through my old e-mails and try to find where I bought it....it was online so I should have a record....stand by

Just looked through my personal e-mail here at home and I cannot find the e-mails related to buying the tool....that leads me to conclude that I ordered it whilst at work and I don't have access to that e-mail account from home....if you PM me in three weeks time I will be back at work and can find out then for you

I've bought the same Bergeon tool to brush a Tudor bracelet.

I do a link one after the other; I have more control on the work.
