- Sam shows the "detail" gouge in comparison to a spindle gouge. He demonstrates two ways to sharpen the tool and turns a finial. There are some very nice closeups of this tool and how it is used to create coves, beads, and other details in woodturning.

Hi Sam, another great tutorial mate, thank you for the lesson, cheers Harry
yet another wonderfully explained & presented video Sam :)
Thanks Sam. A tool I don't have, but is now on the list. Cheers
Thanks for the great info. I just started making finials and this is really going to help.
Yet another excellent tutorial Sam, some very useful tips. Thank you.
Take care
Mike
sam that was a great video,,i need to start practicing on the spindle and detail gouge,,,you explained everything so good,,
Sam, another excellent video. I sharpen my detail gouges as you do in your second method. I do my coves with a long beveled detail gouge but most of my beads and V-cuts are done with a skew. My work horse skew is a 3/4" oval skew but I use both a 1/4" and a 3/8" round skew for smaller beads and other details.
Thanks Sam , just bought that same detail gouge from Packard's. That lesson helps me a lot.
Thanks Sam!! This video is a great help.Cheers Bram
sam what a great tip nice work. bob
Great video Sammy! This will help me tremendously. As always thanks for your time and effort!
+Tom Wilcox Thanks Sam
Thanks. I learned a lot of techniques just from this video.
I'm still using my spindle gouge as a detail gouge... but... tomorrow is the second Italian annual artistic wood turning symposium, meaning tools vendors, meaning I've got a small budget, but a slid one, it's time to get a new tool... or maybe a decent sharpening system.... Thanks for giving me shopping ideas Sam, as always, a perfect demonstration and lesson.
Thank you Sam. I love to watch you tool work. I just purchased Cindy's Vortex tool, Pyramid tool and 3/8" Finial gouge. Thanks for the lesson.
+Gerald Shultz Great, these are fine tools
Sam
Thanks Sam, really enjoyed this video, the first I've seen on the detail gouge that fully explained what/why it is. Cheers, Gord
Thanks Sam
Pure gold information Sam. Thank you.
+Gerald Shultz Thanks very much.
Sam
Excellent training video. Thank you so much!
+James Templeton Thanks Sam
It's great watching a master craftsman at work. Very instructive sir!
Thanks very much for watching. Sam
Thank You Sam.I have been turning for a while and I'm Ashamed to say I don't own a detail gauge. That will change as soon as i can get to my grinder. Thanks again for showing me how to grind it and use it.
+Robert Harrington It is a great tool. I have always made mine from worn down spindle gouges.
Sam
I still haven't watched all your videos, some I have watched several times. Having bought a mini lathe last January you can say I'm a newbie to woodturning. I am having so much fun learning and believe me I have a long way to go! I'm a scrollsaw er and that's a good thing because if I need to take a break from the lathe I can go to the scrollsaw, or vice versa. Sam, you have a natural talent for turning and you explain things so well. You probably do not realize the amount of knowledge you have accumulated during your time as a turner. I was so excited a couple weeks back as I completed my first lidded box. it's about 5-1/2 " round and maybe 3" deep. it turned out good, made my day. now I'm practicing on simple Christmas ornaments. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with people like me. Maybe one day I'll get to meet you and shake your hand for the knowledge you gave me, thanks again.
Thanks for your kind comments and for watching. Sam
Added to christmas wishlist: spindle gauche.
+Willem Kossen Yep, you deserve it!!!
Sam
merci beaucoup
A really interesting video Sam. Thanks.
Am I right in thinking that the point tool is similar to the detail gouge when it comes to creating V cuts or am I missing something?
Cheers,
Ben
Great video, thanks. 2 questions, for a detail gouge, would you get a 10mm or 13mm one? For finials, etc. Secondly, if you wanted to make a gentle slope of the back of a popper fishing lure, what tool would you use? Spindle gouge or skew?
I would go with the 10 mm which is closer to a 3/8th" size. I have two at this size. One has a 30º grind with a long bevel and the other is closer to 40º. Second queston....I like using a skew chisel on small items like a fishing lure. I can control it easier than a small gouge and take off small amounts of wood. Back to the finial... I often use more of a scraping cut with a gouge on finials for the same reason. I can take off just dust and control it easier. Sam
do you use some kind of magnification glasses to see the fine details in your turnings? i was just blown away that it didn't come apart.
+Woodsconsin Woodworking Smoke and mirrors my friend, HaHa
No....I actually do wear some close-up readers when I do a real finial. It helps a lot. Thanks for watching.
Sam
Great video Sam! How fast (rpms) do you run your lathe on the small finial work with your detail gouge? Thanks
Skip, I would say that 2500 rpm's is fas enough. Although it would be safe to turn faster-I find no great advantage in turning much faster. Sam
Hi Sam yet another great and informative video. I am a self taught (mostly viewing your videos) keen wood turner. The information that I have not seen on anyone's videos is: I hope you can help.When grinding and sharpening tools the angle of the grind is always mentioned and of course very important. From scratch, say a new tool or if you want to change the angle and shape of the grind of an older tool. How do you set the angle you require accurately and what tools gauges do you need to do this. I feel it may be a good subject for a video. If I have missed an older video please post the link.Thanks..
+Owen Richardson Check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/ltuM7f5pwNY/v-deo.html I like Ron Browns angel jigs. You can also just do a trial and error thing. Keep measuring the nose angle on your tool and once you have it where you want it, you can simply set the table on your grinding wheel to match. Sam
As usual, Sam, superb...
I see from all the indicators that most of the responses have been from three years, to 9 months ago. I wanted to make sure I wasn't asking a question that you may have already answered.
Still, neither in the video demonstration, nor in any of the responses was there any mention of how to set this 30 degree angle you were referencing.
Could you help with detail; with understanding which/where the reference points are to make the measurement?
Thank you, genuinely...from North Carolina
At one minute into the video I begin to sharpen the detail gouge with the very sharp angle. But your question is a good one. What I use at some point is a tool to measure the angle.Here is a link to the tool I use. It is cheap and reliable.www.ronbrownsbest.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=13&product_id=54 once you sharpen down to the angle you want, sharpening is easy.

Sam. Love your videos. Did not quite catch the brand name of that detail gouge. Have my latest Packard catalog in front of me. Can you help?
+paul mitnick The one i like is a Cindy Drozda tool. I got mine from Packard but you can get them directly from her website. Just google her name. BUT, it is simply a small spindle gouge. I think mine says 10MM or 3/8" Sam
Sam, do you ever use the Oneway Vari Grid jig to sharpen this tool?
No I don't I am not sure it will fit. It might be too small. Sam
@@WYOMINGWOODTURNER Thanks Sam. I've actually used it and the size was not an issue. I'm just wondering if using the jig affects the bevel in a negative way. Read between the lines: I'm introducing bevel creep in my sharpening. Anyway, thanks for doing this demo. I thought I had bought a gouge I could use with bowls and was wondering why I was having so much difficulty. Now, I know: Use the right tool. A detail gouge is not the right tool!
Sam, what did you use to take off the burr?
I used a slipstone that has a taper to it. It is a water stone. Sam
Thanks so much, Sam. I did not know what those were so I look it up. I found them on amazon and will give it a shot. www.amazon.com/Robert-Larson-340-1775-Combination-Slipstone/dp/B000CESZGA
Thanks, again.
Is the detail gouge made from 1/4" or 3/8" ?
+leediablo7 It is 3/8" or 10MM
Sam
Good work but a pen tube wiped down with acetone and glued in with two part epoxy is never ever ever going to move. Imagine trying to remove or move a pen tube that's glued in roughed up or not.
Thanks, this is a good idea. But one I have not tried and do need to try. I use different glues like CA. gorilla glue and Epoxy. It all depends which one I use on how many I have to glue up. But i think and agree that epoxy is maybe the best. Sam
Wow, my finials look like baseball bats compared to that.
excellent demo, Sam. I started spindle turning a short time ago and found it to be different game. I still need tools. this helps a lot.
Cheers,
Lee
