Lathing tool Ultra Shear from Woodpecker

Post by brianpetrovich »

I saw at Woodcraft the lathing tool Ultra Shear from Woodpecker. Has anyone had experience using these turning tools?

Thanks for any thoughts,

I have no experience with them as I do very little lathe work, but they look like they would make turning much easier, and like they say.....Hate sharpening? Don't we all hate sharpening? The carbide cutters should solve that problem.

I can't speak to those, but I can the Easy Wood Tools that Shopsmith also sells. They are made by http://www.easywoodtools.com/ and they are exactly what they say they are.... excellent!

These look to be in the same mold so to speak so I suspect they too would be fine.
