A must for rust bluing or browning.
Have used the four row wheel for years, this is a great addition for hard to reach items like trigger gards.

Awesome Wheels!
I have the Great Model 8 Barrel Service Tools Co. This is a total must for doing any kind of rust bluing. I actually bought both the single and double row wheels. They are top quality construction. Easy to use with all-thread or a longer bolt. Bolt, a few washers and nuts, and you're on your way. I like it this way that way so you can flip the wheel every so often as you should to keep the wires straight. Highly recommended!

Looks like a good tool.
Ordered 2, 4 row wheels along with the large and small hand carding brushes. Have a bunch of rusty projects I've just started. Haven't used yet, but all the carding items are as represented and should do the trick. Now it's up to me!

Carding Wheel
I have the 4-row carding wheel which is great for a bigger surface, but the 2 row is good for tighter harder to get to areas that the 4-row can't get.
