I'm not even done watching this video yet and this is by far the most excellent video explaining each tools' usage that I've seen yet. I'm brand new to turning so this is exactly what I needed--thanks!
wow, I'm bummed to only be finding this now! perfectly splendid editing and lessons! it's already sped up on the parts that need it. very concise info throughout. I've been turning for a few years off and on and never seen it broken down so properly. thank you!
Thanks, 74 yrs old and just getting into wood turning. Bought an old craftsman metal lathe and converting into wood. Haven't turned wood since 6th grade. My new hobby, I hope lol. Appreciate your teaching.
Thank you for taking your time and explaining well. Having your camera at that angle, sure helped and seeing what you were saying at the same time. I’m hoping to get a lathe and I think I’ve almost got my husband talked into it.🤞🤞
What a fantastic video. Am interested in getting into Woodturning but a little perplexed by all the elements. This was packed with information, very clear, easy to understand and makes me think I might be able to have a crack at it.
Great video my wife brought me a Axminster craft AC305WL woodturning lathe now looking for wood turning chisels. I found this video very helpful thank you
Thanks. I just can't get past the feeling that I am a beginner. Been a little over a year since power and a cleaned up bench. Hoping to get back out and play with my lathe again. Thank you very much!
I haven’t used a lathe since I was at school back in the 1960s, but I’ve recently purchased a very cheap “hobby” lathe from Lidl and I want to start making small stuff, mostly just for fun . . . I like making sawdust! This is a great guide to what chisels I need and how to start using them. Thank you for an excellent, interesting and informative guide to get me started.
I’ve been woodworking for over 45 years and turning for the last 20 (?). So, I’m experienced and reasonably skilled. For any newcomers, I can vouch that this is an excellent video with all that you need to know to get good results quickly. If only, it had been around when I started. I’ve downsized my lathe now to an Axminster machine. Looks very much like the one on the video - perhaps a little smaller. Having had a large, much more expensive lathe, I can say that the Axminster does not represent a step down in quality. I have no connection with Axminster other than as a customer of many years.
Fantastic, these videos are a real boost, I am new to Woodturning and thought I would have to wait until COVID had gone before I could buy a lathe and get on a training course, now I can buy my lathe and train on line. Thanks Axminster…
I already know it's not going to be nearly as easy as you make it seem but I'm looking forward to following along once I have my lathe setup. Great video!
Sir by far the best video out there explaining what each tool does and how to do it. I’m gonna save this and run out to my rockler store and get some new tools. I’ve been using carbide scrapper and round head? Tools and I’m feeling limited.
Excellent. I especially like the close-up of the business end of the tool and your concise narrative throughout the video. Wish I could give you a 👍👍👍👍👍 on the like button. Greetings from Kentucky!
Great Job! I purchased a lath a few years ago and finally got around to using it. While purchasing other used tools I acquired about a dozen old lath tools. I have ordered the sharpening equipment for the tools and now I have an understanding of what each tool does. Great job on your video.
Hello Sir. Thankyou for sparing us some of your valuable time and showing us great footage, of the things we'll need to know, going forward. You have great skills, thankyou.
Good instructional video .For beginner a bit on mountindpg blanks,centre finding,punching etc.would be good .When using roughing gouge having your left thumb clear of the tool will result in loosing your nail or your thumb .Take care
Thanks very much - this is exactly what I was looking for! I'm not into wood turning but I've bought a set of these chisels and made a tool rest for my metal lathe so I can make small pieces like tool handles. Your explanations of which tool to choose and how to use it are excellent! Learned more in 11 minutes than in watching hours of other videos. Bookmarked for future reference! You've encouraged me subscribe and explore wood turning in more detail. I've too many hobbies as is, so I don't know if I should thank you for that ;) Cheers!
Got a very expensive s hand wood lathe …not used one since woodwork classes 50 years ago. Your video…very clear….thank you will be watching more of your videos …very instructive. Now looking for a corse to go on.
Thanks for your feedback. The are a few things to consider when buying a lathe, watch this video for more information on how to choose a lathe to suits your needs - ua-cam.com/video/KtqPnrRdDWA/v-deo.html hope this helps
Hi Terry, here is Colwin's reply: "No, you can use the same size lathe, however, sometimes, especially when bowl turning, you will find the bed can get in the way of the longer handles on bowl gouges. Also the cut from a larger gouge can cause problems with lathes of smaller motors just not having the power to drive through the cut." I hope this helps.
Not yet got my lathe so please excuse the question. Does it matter which direction the lathe is turning the spindle? I notice you've got it running 'into' the tools, ie anti-clock, rather than 'away' from them.
This the best video I have seen so far that is geared towards the novice. Thank you for your help!

Brilliant video on how to use each individual chisel. I hope you dont mind me asking what type of lathe would you recommend to buy ,thanks
Thanks for your feedback. The are a few things to consider when buying a lathe, watch this video for more information on how to choose a lathe to suits your needs - ua-cam.com/video/KtqPnrRdDWA/v-deo.html hope this helps
I’m in school right now and can’t turn up the volume but this video is still great without it
Bonjours l'exposé est magnifique dommage qu'il ne soient pas en Français ou sous-titrer, Merci MR.
Thank you so much
Good video, thank you.
This movie is verry help full my question how is the best speed lathe for beginners?
Hi there, the speed of the lathe will be determined by the type of project and ability.
Fantastic tutorial 👍👍👍
I want to thank you all. X
Very good video. Question; I have a set of Record chisels that doesn't include a parting tool. Why would this be the case?
Great stuff thanks bro
Have a nice vid . Good job god bls u sir . From brmm
Just about to buy my first 15cm bench lathe do I need smaller bench tools for this lathe? Thank you.
Hi Terry, here is Colwin's reply: "No, you can use the same size lathe, however, sometimes, especially when bowl turning, you will find the bed can get in the way of the longer handles on bowl gouges. Also the cut from a larger gouge can cause problems with lathes of smaller motors just not having the power to drive through the cut." I hope this helps.
👍👍👍
So the spindle gouge & the skew chisel are the only tools in this set where the tool rest is above center?
The skew will need to be higher for planning cuts and the spindle gouge can be used just above centre line.
Not yet got my lathe so please excuse the question. Does it matter which direction the lathe is turning the spindle? I notice you've got it running 'into' the tools, ie anti-clock, rather than 'away' from them.
Hi Tony, the lathe has to run toward you in order to turn. Hope this helps
@@axminster Thanks yes I've read a bit more since then and now feel a bit stupid for thinking it could work the other way!
I want to buy this wood turning machine tell me the price please and also it's tools
