Tools

Lathe tools come in a variety of shapes and sizes and usually fall into five major categories.

•Gouges—Mainly used for rough cutting, detail cutting, and cove profiles. The rough gouge is a hollow, double-ground tool with a round nose, and the detail gouge is a hol- low, double-ground tool with either a round or pointed nose. Figure 27 shows an example of a gouge.

•Skew Chisel—A very versatile tool that can be used for planing, squaring, V-cutting, beading, and parting off. The skew chisel is flat, double-ground with one side higher than the other (usually at an angle of 20- 40˚). Figure 28 shows an example of a skew chisel.

•Scrapers—Mainly used where access for other tools is limited, such as hollowing oper- ations. This is a flat, double-ground tool that comes in a variety of profiles (Round Nose, Spear Point, Square Nose, etc.) to match many different contours. Figure 29 shows an example of a round nose scraper.

•Parting Tools—Used for sizing and cut- ting off work. This is a flat tool with a sharp pointed nose that may be single- or double- ground. Figure 30 shows an example of a parting tool.

•Specialty Tools—These are the unique, special function tools to aid in hollowing, bowl making, cutting profiles, etc. The Swan Neck Hollowing Tool shown on Page 28 is a good example of a specialty tool.
