Product Description

Woodcut Bowl Gouge 10mm "U" Shape Flute - Un-handled         
They have been the tool of choice for the majority of turners in New Zealand for many years and are often referred to as their "go to tool".
The big difference with the gouges is the fact that they have replaceable tips and solid shafts.
The benefits are:
the tools are stiffer with almost no flexing especially with the smaller diameter gouges
made from high grade Swedish high speed steel
the length of the gouge stays the same
the tips are triple tempered thus taking a very keen edge
tips can be replaced for a third of the cost of an equivalent standard gouge
they are available handled or un-handled
un-handled tools are supplied with a heavy duty brass ferrule
they are sharpened and ready to use
the flutes are finely ground and then polished by hand
a round shaft is more comfortable in the hand than one with a flute

Tip Replacement
To replace a worn out gouge tip, heat the section around the joint with a blow torch for about a minute. This turns the Loctite glue to powder and the old tip can be easily removed, in fact sometimes during the heating process the pops off without any help. Once the shaft has cooled, clean the spigot and flange with a wire brush to remove any glue residue and then with the Loctite ® supplied with the replacement tip fix it to the shaft and leave to stand for at least a couple of hours, preferably overnight and if possible stand it upright.
With Handle $108
The bowl gouges are available in sizes from 10mm, 13mm, 16mm and 19mm.
