Hi all, just a quick note to let you know that we now have a US/Canadian Distribution setup, so we can service your Sculpting Tool requirements. Goto www.GibsonTools.com (http://www.gibsontools.com), and you can see the range of tools available from Top European Manufacturers (No cheap Chinese Imports here!). They have a working relationship with G Gibson & Co (http://www.g-gibson.com) in the UK, who produce the 'Faulds' brand of Carbide Tipped Chisel, but means they have easy access to the French 'Auriou' brand, thought to be out of business, but now up and running with the help of some clever European investors. You can find Files, Rifflers, Rasps, French Drags etc from the Original creators of Auriou.
They also Stock the Italian 'Milani' brand, who also make rifflers, but also specialise in the Frosting Tools, plaster tools, and wax modelling tools. Not all this is on the site yet as its in its infancy, but Gibsons are welcome of enquiries, and will openly accept suggestions of what you guys need.
There aim is to take out the complication of private importing, not only breaching the language barrier, but also being able to package the tools together and get them to the US far cheaper than private imports.
Cuturi Guns are also available through Gibsons, along with most of the accessories to get you running with Air Tools.
Finally, both GibsonTools, and G Gibson & Co Ltd have Facebook pages, dedicated to furthering the progression of Stone Carving Tools, and also investigating other tools for Sculpture. Please add yourself as a freind, with a little note of who/what/where etc.
This months 'Friend of GibsonTools' is Wildlife Artist, Dawna Robertson from Ontario, Canada. She takes her inspiration from the wildlife she so loves, even being commisioned by the Owner of G Gibson to carve a Baby Beaver, from a Rescue Sanctuary.
Please take a look, they're working with the Sculptors and artist to try and improve tools and services.
Thanks
