Traditional Turning Tools

About

Bowl and spindle gouges are the tools used most when turning wood. For most woodturners, a quality 1/2” bowl gouge is a must-have as it is used for turning bowls, platters, wooden salad bowls, and roughing blanks down to round along with all around general wood turning. A spindle gouge is highly recommended for turning spindles such as chair legs, stair balusters, pepper mills and even woodturning tool handles. A 3/8” spindle gouge is perfect for turning small projects like wooden pens, bottle stoppers, toothpick holders and similar pen mandrel type turning projects.
