angle

This is not the best finish I've had - it was the first one I've turned since sharpening my gouges and I think I was previously working to accommodate the bluntness of my tools, and now they have the correct angle and sharpness back I caught the blanks a couple of times :rolling: Anyway here it...

Hi all, two more completed, both requested orders One Spalted Beech cut on an angle, the other London plane.

What an amazing kit the Sirocco is. Really enjoyed working with a more 'premium' kit. Only had one issue, and that was when pressing the clip in. The angle of the actual clip was holding it off the blank at quite a steep angle, and I think any more pressure would have cracked the blank. I'm...

I found I couldn’t get the angle I wanted on one of my gouges the other day as it’s somewhat shorter than when I bought it. I could adjust the angle of the gouge holder but I like the simplicity of just setting the tool extension and placing the holder in the Boss. The middle one is the standard...

Hi all, just a quick Sirroco made with a piece of Oak from the Robert Thompson workshops, famously known as 'The mouse man of Kilburn'. I cut it at an angle to give a bit of character, which I hope it does and finished with a few coats of melamine

Just been watching you tube for sharpening a Roughing Gouge and he measures the angle with a measuring tool. Any idea of places I can get one from and what is the correct name for it. Glen:praying:

Gents and Ladies, I'm after a bit of advice. I have bought a crown 19mm round nose scraper, and I have checked the grind angle on it and it comes in at 75 degrees. As I have a Sorby ProEdge, and it doesn't have a 75 degree setting, can anyone recommend a good angle to regrind the Scrape to? The...

As mentioned in my acrylics post. I treated myself to two new skews, one was the normal flat section type the other an oval skew. These were sharpened to a very acute angle which for me is to sharp for acrylic, at the moment they oil and wrapped up. The skew that i got with my lathe is a much...

Hi I haven't done much turning with bowls I have a piece of spalted beech which I am trying to turn I made sure I had sharp tools before I started and had the speed about 900rpm to turn it round (was cut on bandsaw to a rough round) but all I keep getting are nasty catches I tried it on a...
