Is there a tool for quirking??

Hi guys just wondered if there's a tool designed for quirking? Or is it better to make your own?

Never seen one but I guess making one wouldn't be too hard.

quirk a continuous groove in an architectural moulding or at the sides of staff beads on old houses where the plaster meets the staff bead and a V shaped groove is left. The purpose of the groove is to reduce the risk of cracking where the plaster meets the wooden bead or moulding. :RpS_thumbup:

I cut a small piece of zinc or copper to run up staff bead, and make a little wooden finger float to finish.
