Mis-information
Proving that you can't believe everything you read in the press, even when we write it, there's an error in our advert in Woodturning Issue 253, cover date
May 2013 where we state the dates of the Open House incorrectly.
The correct dates, as stated above, are June 7th and 8th. Apologies for any confusion caused. |

Our latest additions to the site:
Thanks to the feedback that you as customers bring to us, we are never short of ideas for expanding the
site. In response we are working gradually to expand existing ranges and introduce new ones to provide a more comprehensive range of goods for your wants and needs! |
|
|
|
- The
carbide-tipped turning tools created by Mike Hunter
have been setting the world alight for some time. We have been using them - and selling them - for a couple of years now but have, for timing reasons not offered them on the website. Finally, I've cracked under the strain of enthusiastic would-be users so they are
now available - at last, albeit sort of a shoe-horn job! Apologies for the delay.
|
|
- At last the renowned
Versachuck - the world's most versatile woodturning chuck
- is again available. We have also listened to comments from owners and have revised the way in which we offer the product to give you maximum flexibility. The chuck remains as versatile as ever but now you can choose how far you buy into the concept. The choice is now well and truly yours!
|
|
- The Sorby Pro-Edge Sharpening system does a great job of putting the edge back on tools, but the abrasive belts are consumables. We have worked with one of Europe's top
abrasive suppliers to develop a range of high-value,
high-performance replacement belts for the Pro-Edge
that perform even better than the originals but at an affordable price. ToolPost sharpening belts - High Quality, Low Price, Great Value.
|
|
- The ToolPost's very own Busy Bodger has found fame at last - and you can share in it too! We have created a
premium quality printed Tee-Shirt bearing the well-known and unique logo and they're now available for sale, in time for the sunny(?) season.
Availble in a
range of colours and sizes from small for ladies and kids up to 'now that's what I call a turner's muscle!'. All at the same price £10 each inc VAT (£8.33 ex VAT for
non-EU buyers).
|
|
- Recently released from Henry Taylor is a highly acclaimed and easy to use woodturner's decorating tool that will bring new life to smaller workpieces such as boxes, pens,
finials, goblets, etc. As well as the
Decorating Elf, Henry Taylor have released a simple coving tool to work with it as well as a point tool for
enhancing the finished workpieces even further. All items are available now - so let the enhancement begin!
|
|
- Most woodturners, carvers and furniture-makers like to mark their finished work with a logo or signature, showing both pride in the skills exhibited and helping to promote
future business. But what a tedium it can be creating a legible signature, or even worse, a logostyle. Here's a simple solution: low cost and easy to apply,
demanding very little skill - a personalised branding iron stamp. For more details,
download our price list
and see for yourself! Please order by telephone or email - because of the need to agree artwork, these items are not orderable on line.
|
|
- We've always been pretty hot on sharpening here, having brought some superb products such as the O'Donnell Ruby Wheels to the notice of the turning public. Now we have a
new revolution - the
Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) grinding wheels. Definitely the fastest and coolest-cutting wheels ever
available for the woodturning market and with virtually indefinite life. Not cheap, but excellent value for money.
|
|
Saburr Rotary Carbide Cutters
are gaining a loyal following among critical woodcarvers and woodturners who appreciate their rapid timber removal, smooth, snatch-free operation and their clog-free characteristics. Available now in a huge range of shapes and abrasive textures, along with donut wheels for mini grinders, cup wheels and sanding sleeves and arbors.
|
|
- Henry Taylor - makers of superb, beautifully finished tools. If you take a look at my tool rack you'll see a lot of them there. Great tools with some really
innovative ideas such as the
Kryo tools - and available at very reasonable prices
. Now quality simply doesn't cost more: take a look today and maybe treat yourself to the premium woodturning and woodworking tools you deserve.
|
|
|
|
|
- If you are a seeker after the perfect finish on your turned - and other - wood products, then you must take a look at the
Beall Wood Buff
. For smaller work, there is also the
Beall Bowl Buff. A revolution in woodfinishing. I wouldn't be without it.
|
|
- Workshop safety is paramount and few remain unaware these days of the hazards presented by dust.
The Camvac
dust extractors and their myriad accessories are sure to provide a solution to any situation where dust extraction is an issue. With filtration down to 0.5 microns, this really is the Daddy of small workshop dust and chip extractors, which really does keep its dust to itself!
