Product Description
Currently we are offering groups of BENT & DBL BENT turning tools made from our high quality "rolled wire". Rolling wire yields a nice bevel edge which does not require any tumbling/burnishing process.
Previously we were using GOV STEEL flat stock which did require the other tumbling processes: but they still never seemed to come out quite as perfect on the edges as we would have liked….. Smooth of course, but some have minor edge surface variation: very minor – but you will notice it if you check it out carefully. We used those GOV STEEL blanks for our test runs.
This is what this product offering is: GOV STEEL. And it is GREAT!
We happily realized that as the twist moves the material’s edges away from finger contact any concerns about the edges was alleviated so tools made from this GOV STEEL material could be proudly offered as a high quality tool. That pleased me a lot as the feel and feedback from this material is wonderful.
The .025 by .120 “Bent With a Twist” turning tool is the only turning tool we will be offering to you individually. That is because that size of material is the only one that we have left over from our prior slitting process production. But happily it is a great size to have.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
========================
AND ANOTHER AVAILABLE PRODUCT IS.......
NOW we have launched another offering: it is a grouping of six of the various tt sizes. The “I Like Twists” grouping is made from 5 rolled wire blanks plus one of the above GOV STEEL blanks we used for our tooling test runs. Just had to use them because they are so wonderful!
