Does anyone have experience with the Artesania Latina scraper tool, or so called 'micro shaper'?
Does it work at all, or just with the softer varieties of wood?

I've used it successfully with boxwood and pear... But I've also just made my own with single edge razor blades and box cutter blades.

i have that set. While it worked well for me, I think these scrapers are too thin and maybe a little fragile.

I have the set, and you have to hold low to bottom edge being used, or mount in vise with top side for use and hold strip with top board to apply pressure to help mold the strip.
Thank you @dockattner , @Jack Sparrow and @Kurt Konrath for your replies.
I will just order a set and give it a try. Elsewhere on the web I have read that it works better with the harder types of wood, contrary to what I assumed, also depending on the grain.

Look for the right one you needed, Mike. There are 2 sets.
I used them also on softer wood. Then you have the scrape with less pressure are more moves.
With a blunt knife you can then compact the fibers slightly in the groove again.
