I just won a Steel City 60100 variable speed lathe, (I know about the electrical problems/switches) but for 205.00 N.I.B. delivered to my door,I had to, So my question is what turning tools will I need to start over using a wood lathe[:0].
Are the HF Windsor sets any good,40.00 metal wise that is, I know the chinese metal lathe HSS bits are pretty decent for an holding an edge.
I only have about 150.00 left, and I need to get some slimlines, Euros, and Cigars to learn the difficult way.
Are there nay good tool sets available for around 40-60 dollars,other than the HF sets?
Or what individual tools other than just a Skew not sure what size to get, ,Do I need any roughing gouges for pens?. I know I'll need a small beading tool and a thin parting tool, any thing other than bandages, and respect needed??
