Ray, the price for the whole set up was going to be around £60 uk.

Looking at it so far it's all face work, will it do between centres such as on finial's sides of cylinders/lidded boxes.

Ray, it's a hand tool for use on end grain

it's not a machine.
The idea of tool was to be a quick and simple way to add a little decoration which anyone who enjoys turning could achieve regardless of experience, you could make your designs as simple or as difficult as you want, some of the effects/cuts are very challenging but most are simple and it does get easier with practice, the same as anything else new.

If you sell your turning work at craft fairs or such, what price do get for a small plain bowls,boxes, dishes or bottle stoppers?

How much extra would you get if the items had a little decoration that only took you minute to achieve?

How much more rewarding would it be as a complete novice if you were able to add simple but very effective decoration to your first pieces of work?

I do read what others say in other forums Dean.

oh and I have seen RS's larger brother used on spindle turning so why not yours or their smaller one.

Link please Ray, I've seen nothing

Could it be because the two RS's tools and my tool work in completely different ways, both give different effects and both use different cutters, both are seperate in disign and looks so what I would like to know is WHO said it's a copy of the RS tool?

It's all history now anyway, you live and learn

**wheelinround** · 8th January 2009, 08:11 AM

think you mentioned it actually Dean in the past elsewhere

Ok so I take it a patent is being sort or is it some other reason no one can see the tools yet.

keep us informed

When you mentioned hand tools and hammer ion the same sentence I assumed it was done with the lathe turned OFF. I was imagining something along the lines of a compass with a cutting edge and wondering at your precision...

Looks like the account has been passworded, so we can't get in?

**wheelinround** · 10th January 2009, 09:38 AM

Skew I have found this within other forums also so maybe a phissbucket problem
