Is anybody looking to sell Wagner Texturing tool? Would like one for a bunch of charity tops I'm making. Contact me with what you want and what size it is.
Thanks, Tim

Peachtree has one that looks to be similar and cheaper if that is a factor for you.

For tops I use a home made "chatter" tool (made from a hacksaw blade) and or a home made "elf tool". I have the Ron Browns set of Wagner type tools but have never used them on tops. just my $.02

Thanks! I too have a homemade chatter tool, but wanted to see if I could get a little more variety in textures with the texturing tool, so still looking to add one to my tools

maybe consider one of the Robet sorby texturing tools, Nick Agar does a good demo of their use on u tube.

I have these. They are actually quite a bit different in terms of use and texturing, than the Wagner. They are good tools, but, I don't think they will create the same kind of patterns as the Wagner, if that is what the OP is looking for...
This looks pretty close to the Wagner. If an alternative was to be used, I think this would do a better job replicating the patterns you can get with a Wagner, than the Sorby texturing tools, FWIW...Peachtree has one that looks to be similar and cheaper if that is a factor for you.

Jon , If that's the specific type of tool that's wanted then try a metal work single knurling tool and make a handle for it.
Be aware it can be applying considerable side loading to the lathe as you use it though
