Sizes & Shapes of your NEW burs!

 On any jeweller, or Diamond Setting bench, there could be as many as 12 types of burs. These burs are so familiar with many of our tradespeople, I found a listing of styles and the bur sizes that they come in. 

 This list is very interesting and much needed, when you are ordering a new burs. I have 6, of the 13 being shown, these names are as follows:  1) Krause,  2) Stone Setting,  3) Twist Drills,  4) Square-Edge Wheel,  5) Taper Cross Cut,  6) Cylinder Plain,  7) Cylinder Cross Cut,  8) Cup (77B), 9) (HSS) Hart Shape, 10) Inverted Cone, 11) Cone,  12) Bud,  13) Round.   

   Instead of writing out reams of notes of the sizes that you will be needing "this chart is just what the doctor ordered!!". What you have here is the bur and what size each come in. (Sometimes these sizes might change). BTW, those "black dots" show you what each size that bur comes in.


  I saw this chart just laying on my tool-suppliers' counter, I just grabbed it, not knowing when I'd be using it. Well it looks like I'm using it now, aren't you glad that I did! 😊

 Take a photo of this chart & print it, keep it safe for your future buying trips! 

 All of this writing is for YOU and it's exactly why I'm writing this interesting information in this blog. (Is there anyone else supplying such information as this, all for FREE?)
