Unhandled Woodturning Tools
from
Henry Taylor & Robert Sorby

For many turners, tools without handles represent a very economical way of extending their range of tools.  For the beginner, they can offer a chance to build up a set of useful tools at minimum costs, as well as providing a fulfilling learning project - turning a tool handle.  Any but the most novice turner should be able to turn out a handle and by making their shapes and/or decoration distinctive, the handles can become not only individual "signatures" but serve as quick references to individual tools - a great help when they're buried under piles of shavings on busy days.

The lists show the range of tools available from The ToolPost.  For more comprehensive information about particular tools, please refer to the corresponding section of the main tools list.

Please note that most of these tools are not normal stock items and you should expect a despatch delay of between three and thirty days for some tools at certain times in the manufacturing cycle.  We will advise you of any delays when your order is received.  Still, a small price to pay for what can be substantial cost savings.

The tools are split over two pages, as follows:-

Bowl, Spindle and Roughing Gouges; Parting & Beading Tools; Skew Chisels

Scrapers; Bead Forming, Hollowing, Special and Miniature Tools

Please be a little patient as these pages are quite large and may take a few moments to load and display completely.
