Hi, and thanks to all

 

I generally use small chisels and gouges made from carbide shanks of broken cutters, or tailor's needles or hypodermic needles, I don't use motorized cutters, due to the smallness of the details, and I have a normal helmet with interchangeable lenses

Great, thanks. I have also found that at these small scales you have to manufacture your own carving tools.
