Silverline 303159 Wood Turning Chisel Set 8pce 8pce, Multicoloured, 360 mm

I used these on a bead lathe so they felt oversized but that is because I used them on a bead lathe. You can see the size difference in the photo. That being said they were sharp out the box, no burs and good finish on the steel, handles felt secure and have a good weight for the tool. They have a short blade, I would imagine this is for a few reasons, one being the tool should never be that far from the rest and the longer handle gives more control when doing the 'turners dance' . I always feel in control of the tool and it cuts fine with very little catches, I've not used a lathe in 2r years so I would imagine that was me. In short I reccomend these tools to anyone looking into turning. Good thickness, really good handles for control and no bother to use. With a lifetime guarantee to boot well worth it

All tools need to be sharpened and prepared before use, this cheep set of turning tools will need more time than a more expensive set so you decide what you can spare more of time or cash! I sharpened & reprofiled mine with a sanding disk in a drill, cheep but effective. I maintain the edges with a cheep 600 grit diamond plate. I scraped the lacquer off the handles and treated them with linseed oil. this makes them far more comfortable when using for extended periods. I also spent some time rubbing down the shafts of the tools with some 400 grit wet & dry, not enough to polish them but just enough that they slide on my aluminum tool rest a bit better. I have taken off one star because the parting off tool was rounded off on side of the cutting point meaning that it had to have about 2mm ground off to get to square sides (vital in a plunging style tool) and because there is no roughing gouge in the set but the large spindle gouge does a good enough job. TLDR once they are set up right they work as well as a much more expensive set.

As a beginner to wood turning, this set is really good for the price. They work very well for spindles, but don't use them on any bowls, which you would need to buy bowl gouges. The chisels get dull quite quickly though. I later bought a credit-card size sharpener to sharpen the tools.

I’ve given these an average star rating because they’re truly not great, require constant sharpening, and the finish on the handle is horrific. BUT they’re cheap, give you plenty of sharpening practice, and I sanded and waxed the handles so they’re much better now. All in all for the money they kinda do the trick and force you to learn how to sharpen - which is a necessary skill anyway

I bought a cheap wood working lathe which came with a couple of basic tools. It soon became apparent that I would need a few more so I looked on Amazon and found this set which looked ideal. They arrived and at the first opportunity I tried them out. for the price they're excellent and also good value for money. I'd recommend this set to anyone starting out with wood turning. They will keep me entertained for some time, they

A fine set of chisels. Long handles and a good range of forms. Needed sharpening out of the box, but a good set for the price.

I am very pleased with the quality of these chisels. I found the handles to be satisfactory and the blades reasonable quality.

Delivery was fast..exactly what I wanted to get me started

j'ai longuement ésité sur cela, et ceux-ci sont super bien grand, un très bon maintien en main, ne glisse pas des main, il taille dès ça sortie de la boite, attention j'ai faillis me couper avec le plat

Not made of high quality steel so don't expect wonders from these.

Gli scalpelli sono abbastanza robusti, il corpo in legno sembra vuoto ma resistente. Adatti a un uso hobbistico. Presi per baloccarsi ogni tanto col tornio con qualche oggetto di legno. Per il mio scopo vanno bene. Consiglio

C'est de l'acier normal mais une fois bien affûtées le résultat est parfait. Les gouges sont un peu courtes pour du tournage dans les règles...et chauffent il faut en tenir compte. Pour le prix si vous savez affûter ne vous en privez pas

todo correcto de buena calidad y un precio excelente , recomendable 100x100
