Sgraffito Challenge Day 7

Up to this point in the challenge we have been able to only use our fingers and a business card to make our drawings. Today, the challenge allowed us to make a tool to use...
My favourite tool for sgraffito is a rubber tipped clay tool so I decided to try to fashion something along those lines. Here it is, my shiv if you will
It was made out of a plastic pickle fork, part of a water bottle cap and, of course, duct-tape. Worked quite well and gave me the control that I was looking for. Here is my drawing
Not my best but I had limited time today (but more than 5 min!!) and a lot of interruptions. I get to use my tool again tomorrow so we'll see what I come up with.
