    theyre razor blades that have small holes in them and I took a small bolt and bolted them all together and then wrap tape tight around the top of the blades. a tap with a small hammer and its split. Its crude but works. try lurecraft.com

    Thumbs up

    The square ones used for "widgets" and scrapping paint off windows are
    great. They have a reinforced top which holds them in the tool. Some utility
    blades have a point or 45 deg. angle and their not reinforced on top won't
    work because theres no spacing. We put them together like Mo in the
    previous post or even epoxy them together. Hope this helps.
