Doming a star with round tools is a compromise; this block is cut for the job. Seven graduated 5-pointed star cavities let you take a flat blank and give it depth, moving down the sizes until the profile suits the piece — the same principle as our dapping and doming guide describes, applied to a shaped cavity.

Because the block is machined from solid wood there is no metal-on-metal contact to print tool marks into copper or silver, so even pre-finished blanks come through clean. The cavities sit in two rows for quick size selection, and the block asks for nothing more than a dry shelf between uses.

  • Features seven 5-pointed star cavities in a range of graduated sizes.
  • Machined from a solid wood block to prevent marring on non-ferrous metals.
  • Forms clean, consistent star profiles in sheet metal without metal-on-metal contact.
  • Arranged in two rows for clear size selection at the bench.
  • UK-stocked for immediate dispatch to your workshop.

Who it's for

A core tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths creating custom star-shaped components. Also suitable for craftspeople and hobbyists working with copper, silver, and other soft metals who require a mark-free finish on their work.

Matthew ★★★★★

I was skeptical about how well a wooden block could handle metal, but the star cavities cut sharp, clean lines even on copper. Moving the blank through all seven sizes took my pendant from flat to perfectly domed in about ten minutes.

David K. ★★★★★

For years I wrestled with round dapping punches trying to fake a star shape, so having seven actual star cavities that let me step down gradually is a game changer. The graduated depths mean I can finally get crisp points without the metal wrinkling.

Eli H. ★★★★★

The punch-down motion feels much more stable than trying to shape a star with a round dap — really glad I switched to this block for precise forms. Using the smallest cavity already gives a sharp, clean point on 22-gauge copper.
