Spindlemaster
An important addition to the spindle turners armoury. Can be used to plane,
bead, cove and trim end grain. Easy to use and sharpen. The polished back bevel
helps to produce a high quality finish. Exceptional results on softer, traditionally more
difficult woods like pine.

Oval Skew
Delicately balanced tools that are the planes of the spindle turners tool kit. Originally
designed at Robert Sorby, the profile allows the tool to glide effortlessly along the tool rest
without fear of the edges dragging on the rest. They will smooth cylinders, clean the end
grain of spindles, cut shallow curves, beads, pummels and v-cuts, e.g. stair ballustrading
and chair legs. These tools are indispensable if a fine finish is required from the tool.

This tool is rectangular in section giving it more weight and making it superb for spindle
work e.g. newel posts and table legs. We have modified the tool by ‘rolling’ the edges
slightly to help turners avoid catching an edge and to allow greater manoeuvrability.

Used to part the finished project off from the waste material, the parallel sides make for a
rigid tool that handles well. The 1 ⁄ 8 " - 3mm tool reduces the amount of waste, vital if using
an expensive wood. It also makes for a fine detailing tool, e.g. beads and fillets.

The slim blade allows for a very fine parted section to be achieved. This is especially
useful when grain match after parting is required. e.g. parting a lid from its box. The
blade is 1 1 ⁄ 4 " deep giving strength to such a thin section which eliminates flex and
vibration.
