These turning chisels are a great alternative to traditional turning tools that require many hours of practise to master. They cut with a fine, scraping action that leaves a great surface only requiring fine sanding to finish.
The Robert Sorby TurnMaster is the first tool in the world to combine three cutting edge technologies in one flexible tool. Cutters are available in tungsten carbide, titanium nitride (TiN) and high speed steel (HSS) providing unsurpassed range to woodturners at every level. The RSTMHCT123 comes with Tungsten Carbide cutters.

Bowl Gouge by Robert Sorby- 1/2" - 23" Length
Deep fluted to allow heavy cuts to be taken. This tool is used over on its side (about 15-20m off the vertical) with the flute pointing in the direction of the cut.
Curved Scraper - Robert Sorby The curved end profile makes this excellent for creating, smoothing and
blending curved surfaces in bowl and spindle work, eg round bottomed boxes. This new tool is able to take an aggressive cut, whilst retaining the
butterfly sensitivity for the refining cuts.

Cutting tools have been produced in 10, 16 and 20 thread per inch, with a
unique, enhanced helix angle specially designed for use in wood to compliment
these excellent tools. A Relief Cutting Tool Support Rest makes forming
internal threads easier and our Thread and Sizing Gauge takes all the guesswork
out of dimensioning.
3/8" Bowl Gouge (Long Handle)
There is difficulty in achieving this profile. Robert Sorby offers a selection
of gouges with a factory ground
fingernail profile, which is not only safe in use, but also allows the turner
to modify the profile to his
specific requirements.
These tools provide the means of forming perfect beads from 1/8" to 1/2". The nose design permits multiple beads to be cut with precision on spindle for faceplate work.
These high quality modular tool rest posts are made from super strong, precision ground polished alloy steel for vibration free turning. This modular tool rest system enables the turner to build up a collection of tool rests without going to great expense.
