New Lathe Chisel

Post by masonsailor2 »

I turned a handle for my new roughing gouge today using a leftover piece of zebrawood. I’m starting to like the chisels Doug Thompson is putting out.

Nice looking handle. Doug does have some fine tools. How far into the handle is the tool?

2 1/4” which is ok but I think it would have been better with 3””. I think they are made more for his aluminum handle system.
