Robert Sorby Spindlemaster :: Turning Hand Tools

Taming the skew is perhaps the most common of problems encountered by the woodturner. The digs-ins which ensue from incorrect presentation cause many turners to avoid using the skew chisels and consequently reduce their skills and limit their opportunities of turning between centres. The new Spindlemaster does away with this problem. Its design is flat on one surface, and the oval on the other making dig-ins a thing of the past. It is easy to use for even the least experienced turner. In addition to doing the regular planning job of the skew chisel, the Spindlemaster will also cut both beads and coves with the greatest ease. The Spindlemaster gives a fine finish every time. That is a particular advantage when working on soft woods like pine which normally leave a very coarse finish.

Micro Spindlemaster - Since it's introduction, the Spindlemaster has become the favorite tool of many turners. That is not surprising when you consider it's advantages - it has no corners to dig in, it planes, beads, coves and trims end grain, and it's polished bevel gives a superb finish from the tool especially on softer woods. Now this micro version has been introduced with all the same advantages. That makes it ideal for those specializing in miniature work, bobbin makers and pen turners.
