The Ball Gouge is now available! www.arbortechtools.com/product/ball-gouge/
Can't find it on their site.
mgreene939 link works fine here, are you outside of Australia? I know in the past they've had issues with non-au traffic
Yes, USA here.
I'll pass the info on to get them to fix it!
All the Arbortech tools for anglegrinders work very well on battery grinders with brushless motors, like my Makita one. Advantage with the battery ones is that the rpms are a bit more moderate, around 8500 rather than about 12000. Plus they are less noisy.
I wish that fast motion fad would run it's course! I need to see what's going on, how fast it's *really* removing wood. Fast motion makes it *appear* to remove wood quickly, but I bet it really doesn't.
That's cool,I've decided to do more wood work projects!
I will need to ask my wife first if I can buy one hahahaha
Fuck that just buy that shit be a man hahahahahhahahahhaha
I heard of the eye gouge, but a ball gouge that sounds painful
Yikes
neat tool, no idea what I personally would use one for, but I may have to think on it just to have an excuse to have one
That's a really cool tool for spoons!
the cannon woodman, excelent description, interesting tool.
Paul, I don't watch your channel as much as I should. You do very good videos. This toy looks like fun, thank you for the review. Keep up the great stuff.
Thanks Brian. You're making it easy for me to catch up on your videos by moving shops :D I'm still waiting for the CNC/modern shoulder plane ;)
Is it a spoon, is it a distinctly spoon shaped object??? Maybe a question for the doctor.
A Hitachi brand tool with very little vibration
Seems counterintuitive
I just broke a blade on my Laguna, too. Probably bad technique, but I wonder if it's a common problem withe bandsaw.
it does look like a fun tool
Great video!
cool tool
Cool!
I could see to working well for roughing larger carvings
what a bizzare tool
Pretty cool tool there, I've seen them advertised & that's a good demo & review 👍
WOW your Hands move FAST!!
You can make a spoon much faster with a Scorp and a knife. A bent gouch and a mallet would also make ease of it. This could be useful in hard to reach places.
Can the cutting edge be replaced or removed for sharpening?
Yes, it comes with a Ian key. You can rotate the cutter, it says its self sharpening but I don't understand that part 100% :)
Starts at 4:02 just bla bla before that lol
Microwave Hate Machine ah yes, reviews featuring blah blah blah parts, who would have thought?
Hey I like the video but next time can you show the product up close and explain what it's doing
Its spinning around really fast.
haha I meant what the cutting edge looks like
Rekd
So I'm assuming the arbour is not m14 as you say 100mm or 115mm grinders only? I own 3 makita grinders(2 x 125 & 1 x 230mm) and really don't want another, especially a unit that I'd need to buy its own grinding discs etc for if I wanted it for more than just using this tool. It starts to make it an expensive tool if you have to buy a grinder just for its use.
+Larn Davies it's designed for 100/115mm, but has a M14 thread with included step down adapter. I don't know why they recommend 100/115mm compared to other sizes, but it will fit/work on 125mm at least. There may be safety concerns, I'm really not sure. I've never used a grinder on anything but wood!. Contact arbortech?
Works fine with a 125mm grinder Larn, that's what I use mine with. When Paul is referring to someone spending lots of money on a grinder he's talking about my extra fancy new metabo 5 incher ;)
Nothing stopping you from sticking it on the end of your 9" grinder as long as it screws on, just a bit unwieldy though and of course the spindle speed is much lower.
it's basically a router bit
so, it's a giant dremmel bit for a particular kind of sander...
Wat. No. Angle grinder, not sander. Any standard angle grinder. And as for a dremel bit.. sure, its a type of dremel bit if you count standard drill bits, router bits, saw blades as just being dremel bits..
Paul Jenkins lol. I'm mostly just being a smartass.
how noisy is it? did you turn the volumn down whilst using it?
+malcolm oxley volume...on the video? Yes. It's not quiet enough to not need ppe, but it's an angle grinder. Never going to be quiet
you got a point with the grinder,not the quietest machine,would you have bought the ball gouge? if you had the choice?
Yup, its *very* fun. As I'm developing my skills further in woodworking, I'm turning to areas where I'm deficient, trying to expand my repertoire. At the moment I'm diving into curves, sculpture and texturing to enhance furniture. This will get a use (eventually! I still need to skill up and find the right project for it) for that, but in the meantime its just *fun* to do sculpture.
aye it looks fun,i use hand tools for carving and they can be exspensive, its not a cheap hobby but defo fun
Better question is, how did you get that square peg in a round hole?
I'm not sure what you're referring to, sorry.
Paul Jenkins Lol! Just seeing if you would catch what's in your own video. It's me. I'm quirky like that. It's at 5:12 that you are using a clamp of some sort that has a flat square head on it that has been placed into a hole. It just caught my eye as being funny because you hear people here in the US say,how do you get a square peg to fit in a round hole? No one knows the answer. Although,there are many woodworkers who make wooden puzzles that are hard to figure out how they made them. For instance,my grandfather in law makes chain links out of one solid piece of wood. It's pretty time consuming but remarkable at what some people can do with a piece of wood.
Thats just a standard holdfast, nothing tricky about it its just a 19mm shaft so it just drops in.
@@TheWoodKnight I know this is 4 years old, but Christ you don’t know how to take a joke.
Probably would have been faster with a old fashioned gouge.
+Dries van Oosten the head sculpture in dried Jarrah? Doubtful.
definitely
Hello, would you tell me what tool you are attaching this Arbortech Ball Gouge to? I am VERY new to woodworking and don't know what tool you would attach this to. thx
NEVERMIND,,,,thank you. I should have pain more attention in the beginning of your video :-)
your awesome man great video sir 👍 you have a new subscriber on your channel.
Nice but so expensive 🙄
awesome, much less legitimate. Mona Lisa created on computer is up next.
Doesn't working with a tool as nosey as a grinder take away the peace and calm of carving? The tap tap tap of a mallet on a gouge is nice to hear whereas hearing an angle grinder for even half an hour... not for me thanks.
i think it would be good for removing mass though? like 15 minutes getting it knocked down then you can do the cool stuff by hand.
Till you cut your fingers?
I carve spoons often. an inexpensive spoon knife. or a decent u gouge I'd definitely faster.
Yes, for spoons only there are more specific tools that will work quicker. This does more than just spoons.
so does a u gouge
I only watched half of the episode 5 minutes I will never get back
Any uhh.. particular reason?
how do you buy it if is not in the store yet? lie lie lalalala...
+Nenad Jankovic it landed in their store as I was uploading, and is available now
A spoon with a soul would have been carved with a knife and chisel out of a piece of wet green wood found while out walking. If a person wants a machined wood spoon they can be bought for a buck or less but have no soul.
The best thing about using power tools is all the people telling you're doing it wrong while they miss the point of a video.
you realize this is till hand made yes? id hate to see your face when you walk into a factory if you think mass production is rows of 100s of people using power tools....
Nazarene has returned!!! AVE CHRISTUS REX!!!
I don't know. Looks kinda dangerous.
If you touch the spinny bit while its spinning, yes, it will hurt.
I have an Arbortech Tuffcut, which is a disc with 3 tct blades on it. It's the hairy arsed black sheep of the family, I doubt there's any point wearing gloves.... A but a full facemask plus specs is a must. It also fires chips up into the spiders webs in the ceiling!
Price makes me laugh...
Why is that?
Paul Jenkins. 109 bucks..
Yes, I'm aware of the price, why does that make you laugh? Is it too much? A set of spoon carving knives can set you back >$150. I don't have any 'investment' in the game, so I'm not offended or anything like that, just curious why it makes you laugh.
Paul Jenkins a carving knife set still can find it for way better price that you are giving me. It really looks interesting but the price is just rediculous..
Yes, sorry, I was talking about medium quality or higher rather than cheesium grade.
ok. The tol looks interesting but this guy likes to talk and talk just show us how this works without all the valuless gabbing. Oh and then a wooden spoon that is a great idea if you live in the 14th century.
I'm 100% certain nobody has ever made a wooden spoon since the 14th century. Or any sort of wooden bowl either for that matter. Wood is an antiquated medium
I tried to
It ended up flying across my garage so I lost it
Paul Jenkins
wooden bowls are still pretty popular. This tool looks like it may make a good lathe tool. Im make guitars out of magnesium but still use wood for the body. Wood is becoming an outdated medium in some ways but it mainly gets wasted on cheap furniture and diposable chopsticks in Asian countries.
You can buy a wooden spoon for a dollar.
gosh every time I wake lately, 1st thought is, man I need a new mattress...
OK?
I'm almost out of cat food.
Need to throw out the trash here, see ya
Less talking more showing
Is there something in particular you'd like to see?
Ok stop talking
