Robert Sorby 888/1 - Micro Spindle Roughing Gouge - 1/2" (13mm)
Key Features
- This range of tools was devised by Robert Sorby following the success of the Sovereign system. This miniature version is centred on two sizes of alumninium handle in to which a series of micro tools can easily be fitted. This gives the turner the option of extra flexibility as they build up their own collection of the custom-built tools that fit this system.
- At 13mm this tool has 5mm more cutting edge than its micro tool equivalent adding to its ability to remove waste quickly and efficiently. Designed specifically for the Modular series of tools it is commonly used for the initial turning of uneven or square spindle stock to round. The shape of the roughing gouge enables the tool to cut safely with the wings (the tips of the side walls) well back from the work piece. This tool is commonly used for preparing pen blanks.
