Q: What are the specific shapes of the four tools in the 645K set?
A: The set includes a Light Dinging Spoon (1036) with shallow curved face; a Light Weight Toe Dolly (1057) for tight edges; a Heel Dolly Block (1059) for rounded / heel shapes; and a General Purpose Dolly Block (1060) for flat or contoured areas.
Q: Can this set replace using individual dolls like 1058 or others?
A: It complements other doll blocks like the toe dolly (1058) but does not directly replace heavier or specialized dollies; the 645K includes specific blocks 1036, 1057, 1059, 1060 rather than 1058.
Q: How should one maintain these dolly blocks and spoon to ensure longevity?
A: Keep surfaces clean and free of grit, use appropriate hammer faces, avoid overstriking, store in dry place; occasional polishing of contact surfaces helps minimize galling or paint damage.
