In this video, Allan Batty takes you through the make up of the skew chisel and the six basic cuts everyone should know. He shows the proper methods of using the skew, along with "tricks of the trade", so that you can produce superb results without the "dig-ins" that are so common with the skew.
Allan continues from there to instruct on the proper use of the beading and parting tools along with spindle and roughing gouges. The videography is top notch, showing every detail of the cut as it is made.
The question and answer format of tape is easy and enjoyable to watch while addressing the problems associated with the tools demonstrated in the video. Allan's 30 years as a professional woodturner and "perfectionist" approach to all he does has resulted in one of the finest quality, most informative videos available today.

THANK YOU Allen!
VERY instructive!🤠👍💖
WHAT RPM ARE YOU TURNING
I've been turning for about 10 years. I still go back and watch this video probably twice a year and still pick up something new each time.....
I'm so impressed by a true craftsman. You know a guy knows his craft when he makes it look like anyone can do it with little effort. It's not until you make your very first cuts with a skew and destroy everything, that you realize this guy is a master.
In the midst of making my first table legs and I definitely dug in a few times! It's gotta be the hardest one to work with!
Чем труднее инструмент , тем легче и красивее будет дальше ваше работа яначал с этого инструмента надо тренировать руку, потом можно чудеса творить
Allan passed away on the 10th July 2016, but his videos will live on. This video is a great starting point for new wood turners
He was a great man...
And a great turner
The best how-to video on YT. Within a minute it was evident that Allan was a cut above the rest and his teaching was perfect. Such a shame to hear he is no longer with us but am grateful that I can still learn from such a master craftsman.
Thank you.
Best skew video I've found. Rest in peace, Allan. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
When older people share their wealth of knowledge... I am grateful.
As a beginner, I've watched a hundred turning videos and none of the come close to being as informative as this video! Allen Batty is a great teacher.
I keep coming back to Allan, I think he teaches the pure straight edge skew better than anyone else.
There's so much hype about using skew chisels, when I started I was convinced it would be hard....However, if you can use your brain to work out how to present a skew to a workpiece with the bevel rubbing and the point out of harm's way, then you can cut with a skew chisel. There's no magic involved. :)
Watching Allan (and Stuart) is like watching poetry on a lathe. Effortless skill.
Unsurpassed lathe turning explanations… clear, concise, quick, thorough & extremely helpful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Presented in a way that it's so easy to understand. One of the best I have viewed so far.
This is proper wood turning instruction!
Mr. Batty, we miss you so much. I would give anything to have been your apprentice. For now I just have to visit with you via your videos. I have watched this particular one over half a dozen times. I watch until I think I have it all, then I go turn. Sure enough when I come back to this video months later, I learn more. Thanks for all you have done for woodturning. I expect that St. Peter has commissioned a pretty nice balustrade by now.
This man was a brilliant teacher. May he rest in peace. 🙏🏻
Must have watched this 30 times. It never gets old
Very true
What we are getting here is the distillation of several generations of woodturning knowledge from the golden age of British craftsmanship. Allan was so sure of his expertise, and was able to demonstrate it without any ums, ahs, or lack of clarity. Thanks for uploading this!
Alan taught me how to wood turn back in 1996 in a small town called Ripon and I've been turning ever since, thank you Alan
Dear Mr Batty, I keep this video in my download file for constant reference. The very best tutorial ever on the use of the skew. I've learned so much from you. Many thanks

I had no intention of watching this video to its full length, however with a plain and straight forward explanation and then demonstrating the words made it very easy to watch and to retain the knowledge explained there in. Thank you so very much, rest in peace.
Man this guy has reinvented the wheel, what a craftsman now I have to relearn all over again, thanks for the incredible video
I think I've watched this video at least ten times now and expect I'll watch it again many more times.
Myself
A superb tutorial on the correct way to use the skew. Thank you.
Cheers
Mike
This man is a master of woodturning
this dude is an OG. respect.
Master tradesman...fabulous!
What a grand old master. His epic skills live on.
I could watch this all day brilliant
Thanks for your comment - glad you found it helpful.
Not only is this a nice example of woodworking, tooling and the methods of meeting wood and tool, but this is true sharing of craftsman ideas and mentorship. I wish more people would do similar work to pass down true skills and lessons for those younger generations. Such a grand show, thank you both!
So far, the most comprehensive instructional turning vid I've seen. Thanks!
Excellent thorough instruction.
What a pleasure it has been to watch a master craftsman and artist at work. With his teachings Alan has dispelled many of the fears I have held regarding the skew. Now it only remains for to me to practice what has been conveyed. Absolutely Marvelous!
Here goes...
Many thanks
Paul
What a treasure this man was! Saw him in person, once. His son, Stuart, was on the same schedule. What a treat!
One of the best and informative lessons I have watched on the dreaded skew.
Thank you Mr Batty this is an absolute pleasure to watch,a true craftsman explaining his techniques in a way even I can understand and follow.I’m saving this video as a go to for any spindle work I do in future.
I was very fortunate to have completed my apprenticeship as an electrician at the railway workshops in my city. That was back in the 70s and this wonderfully skilled man reminds me of the also wonderfully skilled men who showed me the ways of fitting and turning, albeit metal work but skilled never the less. These days everything is knocked out using computer driven machinery and they just don't teach these skills anymore.
A true Master. The best wood turning tutorial I have ever seen.
RIP Sir!
Thanks for sharing
This video is absolute gold for new wood turners. It answered a lot of questions I had after a few kickbacks that I had and didn't know why.
Absolutely one of the best teaching videos on the skew...and other tools as well! Exactly what I needed at the moment for some skew work I've got to do!
A superb instructional video by a master at his craft. Thank you Allan.
Terrific video featuring a gifted instructor. A real pleasure. Loved the clock references. Thank you Mr. Batty and Craft Supplies USA.
That’s about as fine an instructional video I’ve ever seen. His teaching continues on.
This is more than a fantastic guide to using a skew or turning off center- this is a master class in how to teach - period.
Thank you for the great comment
I understood everything! A novice to the craft and usually at a loss after watching instructional videos, but the detailed instruction was perfection. Thank you.
I love the skew chisel! At least i thought I did... then discovered I loved the narrow skew chisel. It was my go to tool when i struggled. Then i bought my own tools and found myself with a 1" demon! My confidence was shattered along with my wood.
Am now prepared to have another go. Thank you (& your wife) so much for taking the time to do this. Lots of great technical advise.
You're the best Milling TEACHER I met !!! Thanks !!! And ... Best wishes for this new year 2021 !!!
Allan your skill sets are top notch, and tutorial was absolutely clear on point, thanks for sharing, you're appreciated...
Brilliant as we would expect. Thank you Alan!
This is probably the best video I’ve seen regarding the skew. What a true master he was. I will be the first to admit I’ve been using the skew all wrong this whole time. Thank you for posting this video.
This man is a master and an artist I truly appreciate you taking the time to make this video to share with the world there anyone so interested to watch it
He is such an awesome teacher that I couldn't stop grinning the whole time! It seemed like 54 minutes had passed so quickly. I'm simply in awe!
I had the good fortune to meet alan many times at woodworking shows in the UK he was a joy to watch a true craftsman ,some of the turners on some of other tutorials would be well advised to watch and learn,thanks for the video it brought back some fond memories of Alan,
There was something to learn EVERY minute of this presentation from a gentleman and Master Woodturner. I am sure that I will watch it over and over to build upon the elements Mr. Batty presented.
He did an extraordinary job teaching the art of woodturning.
@@CraftSuppliesUSA He explains the techniques in an easy way helped me an awful lot as a starting turner thanks
A first class tradesman all very clear Thank you Alan
I want to thank you for the best teaching video I have ever seen, The camera work of showing the angle and spot on the skew for different cuts is gust great. thank you again.
This guy is awesome.
Fantastic range of excellent videos !thanks for giving back to the woodturners
Thank You very much Allen for making it simple as possible and the tech for cabriole...
Wow I just got into wood turning and what I learned in these short mins was amazing. Allan videos with continue to teach, instruct and inspire. Im not scared to use the skew chisel now
I was having problem with the skew chisel and your video put me on the right road to using a skew chisel. Thank you.
One of our most valuable master turners! Great video.
Excellent teacher. Glad I watched this. Taught me so much more than just about a skew. Thank you!
Always a pleasure watching a master craftsman.. As a very new woodturner I learned a lot from this one video so will watch the rest. So I guess Allan's legacy is... his knowledge will live on and I for one am extemely grateful.
Excellent, you have made an amateur turner happy, thank you
excellent tutorial. hopefully some of the younger viewers will appreciate why the children of my generation we taught to respect age and experience, they have learned and gained skills which are easier to pass on with demonstration rather than from the written word
This has been a great help in understanding the use of a skew chisel as well as the other tools.
Lesson fantastically well organized and delivered, with very rich information necessary to reach the perfection!
Great job Mr. Batty, thank you very much for this complete lesson.
Cheers,
Paulo
Awesome work ,I'm leaning how to use the chisels so this helps a great deal .Thank you .
Thank you so much Alan for sharing your expertise and giving me the confidence to use the skew chisel to its full potential . Take care and I hope you are keeping well. Bill Oswald
What a master craftsman. Your skill has passed on.Thanks Allan RIP
This is literally the most useful video ever for people starting out with wood turning, well done
Thank you for comment. Glad you liked the video.
Before I saw this viedeo I feared using the Skew Chisel. But now I´m looking forward to my next wood turning session.
Good job! Thank you!
Still one of the best wood turning videos out there!
the best video on turning I have seen
I didn't want a screw chisel till I saw this amazing video. Thanks Allan.
wonderful to see a master at work,thanks.
By far the best instructional video. I learned something.
one of the best instructional videos I've seen, thank you.
I love watching and learning from the old masters like Allan Batty and Richard Raffan.
Excellent information on the Skew Chisel tool and sharpening the same and gouge.
What a masterful video! Superb camera work capturing an artist of exceptional skill! Having watched and taught hand surgeons for 12 years, I can appreciate someone who has truly mastered his craft AND is a superb teacher as well. Bravo!! The discussion on off center turning was so elegantly explained! Thank you.
Worthwhile video. Very instructive. Thanks.
Excellent tutorial, thank you, very easy to follow
Não me canso de assistir este vídeo simplesmente maravilhoso! Parabéns Mestre...
best wood turning tutorial I've ever seen! Thank you!
thank you very much Sir Allan for sharing your knowledge. That is awesome and a legacy for the beginners.
Very helpful for a new turner. Thank you.
Wow an expert makes this look so easy. I see I've a long way to go. Excellent video and teaching technique. 👍👍👍
A precious lesson!
Thank you Allan
Outstanding presentation!
Wow, what a great presentation!
Just made my first bentwood ring for my wife, (anniversary).
Looking at lathes now. Allan is a a true professional at wood turning and teaching.
And I really appreciate the way he slides his sense of humor in the teaching, ( a trip to the dentist).
Thank you for making this.
It would cost a lot to attend a class like this.
I also appreciate Charles. I have no idea if he turns wood or not. But the way he watches Allen teach, it's as if he never saw this done before. It makes the video that much more interesting.
Thanks again. 😁
It is very refreshing to see a video, where an experienced turner uses the tools properly as they were designed to. Other videos tailored for beginners use many of the tools more in a scraping than cutting action, which is awful and sometimes even dangerous. This video is excellent, as are the ones by Richard Raffan.
Pure gold.
Excellent tutorial, it must take many years to get to this level of experience. Professional Artist you are sir. Thank you
What a professional instructor
I'm new to wood turning and found this priceless. I had some problems with using my chisels and gouges but Alans video has shown me how best to use them. I was quite scared of using the skew and I hope I can get used to using them.
I enjoyed the whole explanation in full, thank you .
Outstanding work. I know I'll be back to watch this again.
I saved the video Allen so I can watch it over and over to learn more, thank you
What a true gent and teacher I have learnt so much as a newbie , god bless you a very sad loss much appreciated Martin from Barton on Humber
Excellent tutorial demonstrating how to present the tool for various cuts. Really love the use of the clock to communicate at exactly what angle the too should be. For a beginner woodturner this is very helpful. Thanks.
Golden hands you have Mr. Allan. thanks for this lesson :)
