Product Information:

Character limit per line: 30. Price per line covers all items in set.

This intermediate HSS turning set is designed for both spindle and bowl work. The set includes 3/8" bowl gouge, 1/2" round nose, 3/8" spindle gouge, 1/8" parting tool, 3/4" roughing gouge and 3/4" oval skew. These HSS tools will keep a sharpened edge about six times longer than carbon steel and resist "blued" softening from overheating during grinding or from heavy turning. Ash handles offer firm hand control during use and brass ferrules prevent wood splitting from tool pressure. Overall lengths 17" to 21".

  • High speed steel resists "blued" softening from overheating
  • Sharpened edge lasts 6 times longer than carbon steel
  • Includes 3/8" bowl gouge, 1/2" round nose, 3/8" spindle gouge, 1/8" parting tool,
  • 3/4" roughing gouge and 3/4" oval skew
  • Ash handles

    For the quality, price and being a good starter kit you can't go wrong. My first bowl from this set of tools had a better finish with less sanding than the chump China made tools that came with the Jet 1236.
