12 HOW TO TURN SPINDLES Spindle turning is the principal type of wood tur ning (chair and table legs, lamp stems, etc.) The turning of spindles can be done with either a scraping or cutting technique. The cutting technique, by virtue of faster wood removal and a cleaner surface, is the p r eferred method. Fig. 27 CENTERING THE WORK W ood stock for ...

13 TOOL REST POSITION Mount the tool rest in place about 1/8” away from the work and 1/8” above the work centerline (Fig. 32.) This position may vary to suit both you and the work. Place a guide mark on the tool rest shank as an aid to quick and accurate r esetting. Clamp the tool rest firmly befor e operating the lathe. Fig. 32 ROUGHING A CYLI ...

14 SMOOTHING A CYLINDER T o smooth a cylinder , use a large skew chisel. This requir es practice, but experience with this tool is very important. Place the cutting point near the c enter of chisel and high on the work (Fi g. 3 8).

15 CUTTING A SHOULDER Use the parting tool first to reduce the wood to within 1/16” of the requir ed shoulder and diameter (Fig. 43). Clean the waste stock out with the gouge (Fig. 45A), then use the skew for the actual cutting of the shoulder (Figs. 45A and 45B), which is a duplication of squaring an end. The skew then makes the horizontal cut, ...

16 VEE GROOVES Cutting the vee groove demands much the same technique as the bead, except that the skew is hinged straight into the work without rotation (Fig. 51). Only one-half of the vee is made at a time, and one, two, or more cuts may be needed on each side to obtain the desired shape. As in all cutting with the skew , use the bevel next to th ...

17 Place the gouge on edge on the tool rest so that the grind of the chisel forms an approximate right angle with the work (Fig. 57). The chisel contacts the work at the center of the cutting edge. Hold the tool so that the centerline of the gouge is pointing directly towar d the center of the revolving stock. This starting position is important to ...
