"The less sanding you have to do, the better." Truer words were never spoken. At least for woodturning. Another generous and excellent video. Thank you Tomislav.

Thanks for explaining tommi. I’ve watched a heap of richards videos and can’t say that I’ve noticed that feature. A truly masterful instructional video once again . Basicly the whole bottom of a bowl with this scraper.

Another super video! I guess I missed where Richard rounded off the top corner of his scraper, either that, or my memory has failed me again, which is entirely possible. I am trying to think of why that top edge would be rounded, and the only thing I can come up with, is so he can get to the inside wall of a bowl and not cut into the wall with the long edge? I will try to find his video on that and review. I think I have watched all of his and yours so I need to pay more attention. Lol. The little bead in the corner certainly is brilliant and certainly makes it more flexible but it raises a question for me, when you shear scrape with the tool on edge, do you shear scrape with that sharp left side point touching the wood and leading the cut to facilitate the scraper entering the wood easier, OR do you keep that pointed tip off the wood to have the round edge enter the wood for smoother entry? I hope that makes sense. I have done it both ways and I always thought that putting that pointed tip into the wood first was a mistake but if I caught what you were saying here is that you utilize that point when you share scrape. I have kind of preferred that way, but I tried to avoid it because I thought I was doing it wrong. Being a perfectionist sometimes sucks as you probably well know. As always hugely informative and there is never a video that I watch of yours that I don’t pick up another juicy tidbit that I’m excited about. Thank you my friend and keep on doing your thing. You are one of the best. Scott.

Hello Scott, thank you very much for watching my videos.... Not sure why his scraper did have rounded edges, my guess is as I would do that is once his 25mm skew has worn out He probably repurposed it for shear scraper, as I would do the same.... That way you will have those rounded edges left. In terms of using bead on my scraper, I tilt it so it has that negative rake and roll it back and forth to get one point in wood then the other until I get entire bead done😀 When shear scraping, I use point to get into corners and for wide surface I use bottom half of the tool...

Thank you very much, I'll do a video on this,but what usually happens with bigger swing lathes is that there is bigger gap in banjo and tool rest, so the rest would't drop down to low when I change settings in hurry I put this collar.... Usually I would keep it up until muscle memorie kicks in but I started to like it 😀

Thank you for another helpful video. Can you please remind me what size shear scraper you prefer?

Thank you for watching, its 25mm wide or 1inch and 6mm thick or 1/6 of an inch.

Why does that scraper have a rounded upper edge? I understand why on lower edge but am not understanding rounded upper edge.

@tomislavtomasicwoodturning

5 ай бұрын

Usually from the factory it would't have it but again usually shear scraper that Richard is using was probably old worned out skew... That makes awsome shear scraper as it doesn't have to have reach.... And in scrapers you have edges rounded over.... ☺️

It’s called a left hand scraper. The one he’s showing looks like it’s by Crown Tools, costs around $120 US. Henry Taylor also makes them, around $90 US. I’m not aware of any US turning tool makers that create left or right hand scrapers.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Rewatching this video I note you have a RSBG8 grinder. I've just purchased one but I'm having massive vibration due to the stones wobbling from side to side. Was this the same with yours? If so how did you fix the problem ? Did fitting a CBN wheel help the machine run smoothly as yours does?

@@tomislavtomasicwoodturning not yet as it's the wheel has a huge side to side run out depending on the position of the wheel. I think the hole in the middle is off and I was surprised to find there are no bushes in the wheel which sits directly onto the shaft. Other grinders I've used have a bush in the centre that centres the wheel true. RP are sending me another set of wheels.

Did you modify a left hand scraper by adding the notch? Or did you modify a square nose scraper by adding a radius then the notch? Crown is one of the few tool makers that makes a left hand scraper like the one you are showing.

@tomislavtomasicwoodturning

5 ай бұрын

There is a video a few months back when I unbox first batch of tools from crown, and How I shape all the scrapers, this one was square end 1inch

How do I buy your lathe tools?

Good demonstration as always, Tomislav. I've been watching your videos, but haven't had anything to say it ask, until now. Sheer scraping still makes me a bit nervous, knowing what a slightly angled and unsupported scraper can do when it slams back down onto the tool rest. My hesitation might be my limitations in holding the tools with my paralyzed hands. I have a good grip on the very end of the tools and use my left hand to keep pressure down on the tool rest. I cannot squeeze a scraper into a sheer scrape, but I certainly have wrist and rotation control at the rear of the tool with my right hand. Would you try a scrape or two imitating my limitation and see how it goes? Thank you and be well!

@tomislavtomasicwoodturning I certainly wouldn't mind if you made a video. I believe my concern is that I won't have the control to keep the cut at the supported part of the edge, that it will skate back on me. I'm very comfortable with my skews, so maybe I'm over thinking it.

@tomislavtomasicwoodturning That would be fantastic. try imitating me by holding just the end of the tool handle having nothing but downward pressure available to you on the tool rest with your left hand and see how that is for your ability to maintain a supported cut.

Thanks for the video. I was sharpening an acacia tree, I threw up a piece of the cobalt insert. When sharpening, lower the cutter into the water, and sharpen it again. As soon as it dries, it's time to cool it again.

I am not picking on you, but next time you point at the end of a tool, can you use a pencil rather than your big thumb?
