I am NOT posting a link to the carbide tools from this video because I hate them. They are cheap and low quality and I do not recommend them. If you’d like to suggest some good carbide tools, feel free to mention them in the comments. Thanks!

Published 28 May 2019

There are only a few main cuts in turning and 3 turning blank orientations. Success comes from understanding the grain’s interaction with an edge/wedge. And since there are only a few handful of tools this is an easy reach for new woodworkers. Grasp this and your enjoyment of the craft and quality of results will all improve.

Bowl-gouges cost a lot of money, but you can make a fantastic gouge out of some simple materials and a few hours time in the shop. Lots of turners have made the famous “Oland tool”, but this video presents an easy, cheap, and nearly idiot-proof method for making an Oland-style tool that can handle large turnings and hard, challenging woods.
