Cutting small, perfectly shaped beads has never been easier. Ashley Iles® Bead Forming Tools take the frustration out of cutting small beads no matter if they are single or multiple concentric beads. How do they work? With the handle held low, the wings on the end of the tool score the work prior to the fluted area cutting the bead to shape. This shearing angle produces clean, precise beads that require little or no sanding. By placing the wing of the tool in the groove of an existing bead, multiple concentric beads can be made. Sharpening is done by lightly honing the bevel on the end of the tool. *Made of M2 high-speed steel *Supplied with 9" ash handle

The Carter Perfect Sphere™ Tool allows you to turn spheres from 1" to 14" diameter depending on your lathe capacity. This system can be used on lathes ranging from 10" to 25" diameter capacity.
The Perfect Sphere™ Tool utilizes a fixed pivot point on which the cutter head pivots side-to-side in an arc motion to cut the sphere to shape. Prior to shaping the sphere using the Perfect Sphere Tool, it’s necessary that the blank be roughed turned between centers to a sphere shape fairly close to the desired final size. For chucking the turned sphere to remove nubs leftover from shaping, we highly recommend the Carter M-Chuck Drive Center system.
The Perfect Sphere Tool system is supplied with an adjustable mounting base designed to fit most lathe beds, a Riser Stud that’s specific to your lathe capacity and a 6mm (#1) carbide cutter. If you’re not sure what your lathe capacity is, simply measure from the center of the lathe spindle to the top of the bed ways and multiply the distance by 2.
Example: If the distance from center of spindle to bed way is 8", your lathe capacity is 16". A 16" Riser Stud is the size you need to order. *Turn spheres from 1" to 14" Includes: Adjustable mounting base (fits lathe bed gaps 1" - 4") Perfect sphere tool 6mm (#1) carbide cutter Riser stud

Cutting the correct dovetail angle on the work piece in preparation for chucking is a key factor in maximizing your chucks ability to hold the work firmly in place. The Henry Taylor® M2 HSS Dovetailer's new dual-angle design makes cutting the dovetail on the base of your work automatic. When one cutting edge is parallel to the base of the bowl, the correct dovetail angle is automatically cut by the other. Not only does this simple tool cut inside and outside dovetails equally well, the entire length of the blade can be sharpened using a standard bench grinder. *M2 High-speed steel *4" Blade *16" Overall length

Few tools in the shop can save you time and money like the Kelton® McNaughton Center Saver System. Instead of peeling away 90% of a bowl blank into useless shavings, you can create several bowls from a single blank. Bowl coring reduces the cost per bowl and the cored bowls take less time to turn and finish. Bowl coring is great for the environment as it maximizes yield and reduces waste.
Unlike other fixed position bowl coring systems that cut predetermined shapes, the McNaughton Center Saver System lets you vary the shape, thickness, and diameter of cored bowls via the newly redesigned articulating tool support post. An added feature is the detachable hollowing gate that allows you to use the tool support post for hollowing turning using free-hand hollowing tools. Simply adjust the crossbar to fit the tool you want to use and you'll have a rock-solid tool support that makes hollowing far easier by counteracting the leverage created when cutting. Lightly honing the cutter insert with a diamond stone helps maximize cutter life.
