Robert Sorby lathe tool set

Description

Set of 8 High Speed Steel Lathe Turning Tools
This set has the 8 basic tools you'll need for spindle and bowl turning. The 8 piece set includes 1/2" round nose, 1" square nose, 1/4" and 1/2" spindle gouge, 3/16" diamond parting tool, 3/8" bowl gouge, 3/4" roughing gouge, and 3/4" 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".
