Woodturning and Carving Kit
This kit features the jigs that are specifically designed for the shaping and sharpening of woodturning and carving tools. The kit includes R7557 turning tool jig, R7560 carving tool jig and R7561 profiled leather honing wheel.
Turning Tool Jig
This turning tool jig will help deliver a perfectly symmetrical grind on bowl, spindle and roughing gouges up to 36mm in width. Supplied in two parts, the design allows you to pivot your gouge horizontally and vertically to control and perfect both the side grind and nose angle. Once mounted onto the support arm, the jig can be locked in to position, meaning your grind can be repeated on multiple gouges to provide a consistent edge geometry.
Carving Tool Jig
This carving tool jig rests freely against the bar of the universal jig holder to keep the carving tool equidistant from the grind stone, to ensure a repeatable grind angle across the whole bevel edge. The V shape design automatically clamps the carving tool to the centre of the jig. Once the angle has been set simply holding the jig against the bar and applying slight pressure provides a consistent edge geometry.
Profiled Leather Honing Wheel
This profiled leather honing wheel is used for honing and polishing the inside of woodturning bowl, spindle and rouging gouges and carving gouges and V tools. The honing wheel is supplied with a steel arbour that screws onto the main drive shaft allowing you to control the rotational speed. The 100mm by 25mm wide wheel has two tips to accommodate the honing of both narrow and standard gouge. The optional honing paste helps remove any burr and creates a razor sharp mirror finish. ©
