Ashley Iles Treadle Turning Tools Starter Set in Tool Roll

This starter set of turning tools is specifically configured for treadle lathe users. It contains a 1" roughing out gouge, a 3/4" skew chisel, a 1/2" spindle gouge, and a 1/16" parting tool. These superb tools are conveniently packed in a durable navy blue tool roll. The set covers all the fundamental operations in popular sizes.

The difference between this set and our other starter sets is that this set contains a 1/16" parting tool which works much more effectively on a treadle lathe (which has less power), than a powered lathe.

Except where noted all tools are made of high speed steel (HSS) and are sold handled. Tony Iles hand finishes each and every turning tool himself and is proud that every tool is shipped with its surfaces ground and edges broken. These are tools that will feel wonderful in the hand, with a heft makes them feel very solid - a real aid in turning. All the tools are shipped sharp and ready to use, although we fully expect many of you to customize the grinds to your particular working methods.
