Here's a link to a video demonstration of a very unique turning tool...I have one that was designed for 'pen' work and let me tell you it makes quick work of taking a square blank to round!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHbtvaeZHdMOh by the way 'Chinny' these are available from a fellow Canuck if you're interested! |

i beleave the tool is great.I dont need it yet...as a tool hungry i am(aren't we all) but i found easy to remove amount of wood with the tool Bedan.Not many people use that because it caches very easy if you are not familiar with it.When i want to remove quick a big amount of wood i use it reverse!!!With the angle down http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMDPE8i4LiQ |

Thanks for the link Mike...that 'Bedan' is very versatile! I had no idea you were a 'turner' until 'chinny' mentioned it BTW; I received your 'Flower II' yesterday, very impressive puzzlework as always  |

Thats 1 cool book on threading, and the puzzles there are great. Have the tools, but never mastered free threading. Instead I use the thread from the lathe chuck and a dremel v cutter for mine. Bit fiddly but works for me
Theres also a latest book by David Spingett called Woodworking Full Circle worth getting, where he glues 2 pieces together, turn it and split the gap , giving different designs when reglued, a wow!
How about a few pics of your wood turn masterpieces in the posts

You can use a lathe to grill mushrooms on so they cook evenly.  |
