NOTE: The board I used was 7 x 10, not the 5 X 10 as I mentioned. I marked the center at 3.5 inches. 

In this video, Professor John Ahr of the Online Jewelry Academy, demonstrates how to make your own sinusoidal stake for anticlastic raising.  Anticlastic forms have been popular in jewelry design for many years.  But, most people whose avocation is jewelry making don't explore this wonderful technique because the tools are expensive.

Even if you don't have expert wood working skills, you'll be able to shape a hardwood board into an amazing tool.  The process is fairly fast if you have access to power wood working tools.  But, this tool can be made using nothing but hand tools.  And, in this video you'll learn a couple of tricks for making your stake perform perfectly for years to come.

In a related OJA video, Prof. Ahr demonstrates how to use this tool to create an elegant hair pin.  But, the design possibilities this tool creates for you are almost limitless.
