| Throughout the world, the name Robert Sorby is synonymous with all that is good in woodturning and Robert Sorby turning tools remain the benchmark by which all others are judged. |
|
Specifically produced for turners who understand the nuances of the craft, these are detailing tools used on between-center work, where the grain is running parallel to the bed bars. They are used to create coves, beads and other profiles on goblets, vases and egg cups. |
|
Robert Sorby bowl gouges are a must in the tool kit of every bowl turner. Milled from round bar, giving both mass and stability. These tools are ideal for making bowls. They can produce either massive profiling cuts or delegate as necessary. |
|
Created for Woodworkers' Store for small projects and pen turning.Set includes:
» 10mm shear scraper
» 8mm roughing gouge
» 6mm spindle gouge
» 1/4'' round skew
» 1/16'' parting tool |
|
Use the outside/inside caliper for getting accurate measurements on hollow- vessel turning. Double - ended caliper allows transfer of measurement without removing caliper from your work. |
| Shear scraping is a recently enhanced method of woodturning which relies on the presentation of the scraper at a shear angle. The technique offers some significant advantages over conventional scrapers. |
|
The 3/8'' square shank sits firmly on the tool rest and presents the cutter at a 45° angle to the workpiece when used in either direction. This is due to the unique cutter seating position. Each tip can be re-positioned several times before re-sharpeining becomes necessary. |
| * Suitable for use with the 3/16'' Diamond Section Parting Tool |
|
Taming the skew is perhaps the most common of problems encountered by the woodturner. The digs-ins which ensue from incorrect presentation cause many turners to avoid using the skew chisels and consequently reduce their skills and limit their opportunities of turning between centres. |
| The new Spindlemaster does away with this problem. Its design is flat on one surface, and the oval on the other making dig-ins a thing of the past. It is easy to use for even the least experienced turner. In addition to doing the regular planning job of the skew chisel, the Spindlemaster will also cut both beads and coves with the greatest ease. The Spindlemaster gives a fine finish every time. That is a particular advantage when working on soft woods like pine which normally leave a very coarse finish. |
|
Recommended for the initial turning of uneven or square stock to round. The shape of the roughing-out gouge enables the tool to cut safely with the wings (the name given to the tips of the side walls) well back from the workpiece.
* Not for use on bowl grain projects. |
|
Combines a shear scraper with a hollowing tool. Includes two double ended HSS Hollowing Tips, HSS Cutter and Allen Key and full instructions. Unique Shank design allows HSS cutter to be used for conventional or shear scraping.
* Replacement blades sold separately. |
