Easy Wood Tools offer a range of high quality, easy to use carbide tipped woodturning tools. These tools make turning safe, fast and fun. Whether you are a new woodturner or a part timer, Easy Wood Tools have the best tools for you.
Learning to turn wood can be difficult. Particularly when you are starting out. One of the biggest challenges the new woodturner faces is working out exactly what turning tools they need. Fret no more! Easy Wood Tools offer a range of high-quality carbide tipped woodturning tools that are easy and safe to use. At the core of this range are three fundamental types of tools. The Rougher, the Finisher and the Detailer.
Available in four varieties, the Finisher is your go to tool for inside and outside curves and final shaping.
The Finisher
Shape your woodturning project with the Easy Wood Finisher. This tool takes up where the Easy Rougher leaves off. The Easy Finisher has a round carbide cutter perfect for inside work and outside work and shaping your project. Great for bowls, coves on spindle work and other shaping tasks. Like the rest of the Easy Wood range, the Easy Wood Finisher is designed to be used level on the tool rest, with the cutter set at the centre line of the lathe.
Easy to use
The Finisher is easy to use. There are no complicated approach angles, or bevels to ride. The design of this tool allows the Easy Finisher to effortlessly cut from the centre of a bowl out to the rim OR from the rim to the center! All without changing any angles whatsoever. You just stand in one spot and cut - coming and going until you get to the shape you want. Watch the video below or on our YouTube channel to see that in action.
No sharpening required
Never sharpen your tools again! When one side of the cutter gets dull, just rotate it to a new edge. When you’ve used all four edges, simply replace it with a new cutter. You do not need to buy any sharpening gear whatsoever. You do not need to spend weeks learning how to sharpen an edge. Great if you are new to turning or simply can’t be bothered.
